[General Questions and Answers] Aserar:
I'm using a AOSP gapps build custom rom and the Google app isn't installed and apparently installing it as a regular app not a system app causes an issue with Google assistant. Is there a way to make it into a system app? I found different ways but all outdated and none of them worn on Android 13. Tried to flash gapps but since the rom is not vanilla it gave me an error

PS: Changing the rom is not an option

Any ideas?
[General Questions and Answers] xXx yYy:
If Android OS is rooted then move the app in question to /system/app or /system/priv-app.

You may use Link2SD app to perform this
[General Questions and Answers] Aserar:
This is one of the outdated methods. Won't work on any newer versions of android.

Also one of the outdated methods I have tried.
[General Questions and Answers] Droidriven:
Extract your ROM zip, find the system/app or system/priv-app folder and place the apk in whichever of these two folders that you want. Then recompile/zip your ROM back into a flashable zip and flash it.
[General Questions and Answers] Aserar:
I'll give this a try. Thank you
[General Questions and Answers] Droidriven:
If you are flashing a ROM zip and a Gapps zip, you could put the apps in the Gapps zip instead of the ROM, either way, it would get flashed to system, whichever you find easiest to edit.
[General Questions and Answers] Aserar:
I tried this actually but the rom is gapps variant and flashing a gapps zip (even though it only has a missing app) caused errors rendering the OS unusable. As for including the apk into the rom zip, I'm not up to date on cooking roms but when I tried to unpack the bin file with android Image Kitchen 3.8 it says unrecognized file! Should I use a different software?

So method 1: Though adb had root access, when I issue (adb shell "pm set-install-location system") I get an error that says install location has to be a number. Not sure how to get it to flash to system.

Method 2: I'm not sure which app could be used as root-enabled app. Does magisk have a file browser feature like that?
[General Questions and Answers] Renate:
There is always the "nuclear option".

You can re-sign everything on your system with your own signing.

This will probably will not do good things with Google services as they check the signing.
[General Questions and Answers] Droidriven:
Extract with 7zip on PC or ZArchiver app on Android.
[General Questions and Answers] Aserar:
Doesn't sound ideal and above my pay grade lol

I have the option and its turned on? Is my phone global and I just didn‘t know about it? Is this option not the holy grail of rooting anymore and its more complicated? Please help me understand if I can root. Thanks.
[Sony Xperia 1 V] Hurt Copain:
Nah they all say that man. US included. But to unlock it you have to do fastboot oem unlock 0xCode from Sony developer site that you get after entering your IMEI... It will give you a code then when you send the command it tells you it's not allowed.. sorry.. need DQ54 or DQ72... DQ62 is not unlockable..
[Sony Xperia 1 V] Shayde182:
I’m so disappointed.
[Sony Xperia 1 V] Shayde182:
Can you imagine if they locked the engine hood on all cars in the united states? The outrage that would follow and then being told you‘ll have to go to the dealership just to have it unlocked and that they usually say no? Anyways, does someone usually find a workaround, or has someone achieved it in the past?
[Sony Xperia 1 V] Hurt Copain:
Yea, but if you check I already bought one and verified this..
[Sony Xperia 1 V] Shayde182:
I preordered it and didn’t think to check because it‘s not a major carrier and I didn’t buy it from T-Mobile for example. Secondly, I did see where you verified this after I had the phone but I posted this question because saying “ Can’t acquire fast boot “ means nothing to someone whose last rooted phone was a Galaxy s8. Last I was aware if you could hit “ OEM unlock “ that was it and there was no extra steps. Sorry, this is my first Sony Device and I didn’t know.
[Sony Xperia 1 V] Hurt Copain:
I would return it and get the model from wondamobile it's unlockable and works great
[Sony Xperia 1 V] dantegl36:
What does unlocking the phone or having an unlocked phone get you?
[Sony Xperia 1 V] UniquePhillip:
To root your phone you need to replace the bootloader, to replace the bootloader your phone needs to be unlocked (unlocked refers to an unlocked bootloader)
[Sony Xperia 1 V] dantegl36:
Oh gotcha. I was thinking usage across carriers where the hardware is compatible. Thanks for clarifying.
[Sony Xperia 1 V] Hurt Copain:
It can already be used on any carrier
[Sony Xperia 1 V] dantegl36:
Yeah well aware. I've taken it to other countries and used sim cards there no issue.
[Sony Xperia 1 V] Velaar.Felps:
Offtopic: New Mercedes EQS locks you out from opening the hood. Only dealer permitted.

On subject: There is no way of unlocking DQ62 as of today. Please stay away from sites selling codes/tokens - it worked on IV does NOT work on V.

[General Questions and Answers] Moi2004:

[General Questions and Answers] xXx yYy:
If your device manager shows your USB connected phone as a USB download gadget, it means that your phone is in download mode. Download mode is a special mode that allows you to flash the firmware of your phone. It is also used to root your phone or install custom ROMs.

To force your phone to reboot into normal mode press and hold the power button for about 10 seconds.

i have C40 too. FYI linux machines need not drivers. Distro provided android-tools just enought to

login phone with adb. Set USB-mode to PTP (picture tansfer) .

Someone says after creating MI-account 15 days long waiting mandotory to unlock phone.

Is this right? Am I able to unlock it on linux machine? Even some more cumsersome way? Since i have no easy

access to a win machine. I am already able to login to my C40 as shell user; run commands ... etc.

When unlock is it needs to download GB s of data? Anyone know? Since here mobil internet is slow a bit.

A more general question but I am curious that am I able to create a "mod" by myself as taking the current image

via say dd (it is there i see it) cut off fats/modify it then write back via some cmd say fastboot.

Say phone already unlocked and i am login as root user in this case still needed to go back and fort?

remount ro parts as rw then Just modify it in place. Is it works? Assume i am technically enought.

I dont need functionaly of phone other than wifi/hotspot and calling.
[Xiaomi Redmi Note 7 Questions & Answers] miwashi:
I'm using a Redmi Note 7 and I want to install a new custom rom without using a PC.

To do this I first managed to unlock the bootloader, and now I've installed Magisk and I'm trying to root it to instal TWRP, without a PC.

The problem is, after downloading the stock ROM and loading it in Magisk, Magisk keeps opening the .tgz and saying 'unsupporrted image format' after unpacking it.

Does anyone know the problem here?

And is there a better way to flash a custom ROM without needing a PC?

I have created this guide to install the Carstream app and have it fully functional on the Pixel 6 series. It was bothering me that the Carstream app wasn't working so I put everything in one spot to help myself and possibly others that have encountered the same issue. It is possible this guide may work on other devices. I have only tested this method on Raven and Bluejay. This mod requires a rooted device with Magisk version 26+. Make sure you follow these steps exactly.

* Install Magisk and and patch the boot.img to root your device: https://github.com/topjohnwu/Magisk/releases

* enable zygisk is Magisk settings

* Make sure the "Enforce DenyList" setting is UNCHECKED in Magisk settings. YOU WILL NOT BE ABLE TO USE THE ENFORCE DENYLIST FEATURE WITH THIS MOD.

* Install Lsposed (Zygisk variant) MAKE SURE YOU DOWNLOAD THE ZYGISK VARIANT. You install this zip in magisk as a module: https://github.com/LSPosed/LSPosed/releases

* Install Shamiko in Magisk as a module: https://github.com/LSPosed/LSPosed.github.io/releases

* Download Android-Auto-Xposed-Unlocked apk and install it: https://github.com/Rikj000/Android-Auto-XLauncher-Unlocked/releases

* Download and install KingInstaller, enable file access and install apps from unknown sources: https://github.com/fcaronte/KingInstaller/releases

* Download the latest version of Fermata (DO NOT INSTALL YET): https://github.com/AndreyPavlenko/Fermata/releases

* Download the AAAD apk and install it and allow the app to install unknown sources: https://github.com/shmykelsa/AAAD/releases

* Reboot Device

* Open KingInstaller, tap the "Reset Default" button. This will take you to android setting app. scroll down and tap on "Open by default" and uncheck the setting. Go back to home page of kinginstaller.

* In the KingInstaller app tap the "Select File" button and look for the fermata APK we downloaded earlier. Select the apk file. Check the "enable if you use rooted (LineageOS) phone" box. Tap on "Install as King". Let it do its thing.

* Look for the Lsposed notification in the statusbar and open the app by clicking on the notification.

* Navigate to the module tab within Lsposed and enable Android Auto- XLauncher Unlocked and Fermata Auto. the Android auto app should be checked under both modules in Lsposed.

[LG V60 ThinQ Questions & Answers] AlternativeTotal2211:
Hi.

So, I bought a V600TM used.

I was warned that the Camera app would not work and indeed it does not even load.

But I was guaranteed full functionality with Open Camera and MGC (the modded GCam), which is only partially happening.

Open Camera works for the rear cameras but not for the selfie one. More specifically, it opens on "Back Camera ID:0", when I tap to switch camera it shows a wider view and says "Back Camera ID:1", and when I switch again it does nothing and says "Failed to open camera. Camera might be in use by another application? ID:2" (I guess it's the front/selfie one?).

Camera FV-5 Lite and MGC (a modded GCam) also allow me to switch between main and wide back cameras, but no front/selfie.

Filmic Pro does not work at all. Once I went through the hassle of a trial, and I confirmed all permissions, it showed a black screen and there was nothing to do but closing the app.

Hard Reset doesn't solve the issue.

So I did the built-in tests in the Hidden Menu (*#546368#*600#) and the results are confusing:

Device Test / SAAT / Manual Test

- Camera Main: works.

- Camera Main Wide: the test does not even start. When I click on it from the SAAT menu, it tries to open but then I'm back to the SAAT Menu.

- Camcorder: works.

- Camera VT: it does not ask me to take a pic like with the Camera Main test. It just says "VT Camera" and shows a wider view than the Camera Main test (but not as wide as "Camera 2" in the ORT test).

- Camera DS: same view as VT Camera, but it says "VT Camera Wide".

- Camera OIS: works.

- Rear ToF Preview: it simply shows a black&white mirrored version of the "Camera Main" view. When I press Pass, it shows a strangely colored (infrared?) version of the same view.

- Rear ToF Calibration: at first it's all black, then it says "RGB Camera Open" and I can see the same view as with "Camera Main", and then it says "IR Camera Open" but nothing changes and then it says "Fail (-9)" and below that it says "1.3.3".

Device Test / SAAT / Optional Test

- ToFCoverTest: it shows first the same black&white view as for "Rear ToF Preview". When I click Start it takes a pic of that, and it switches to the "infrared" view. Then it says "fail" on the pic, showing a % number on the Retry button, which changes at each retry.

- ToF Cal File Check: pass.

ORT Test

Camera 1 and Camera 2 (a wider view) work.

Camera 3 shows a black view (probably it's the front camera?).

Camera 4 and 5 are exactly the same as 1 and 2 but without flash.

Nowhere is to be found a test for the selfie camera. It's like the selfie camera does not exist at all.

What do you think?

Software issue? Solvable with a reinstall from KDZ?

Or does it seem hardware to you?

Thanks for the help!
