[General Questions and Answers] Dabble_4:
You still haven't answered the question. Is it possible to run GSI below the current Android version on a smartphone?
[General Questions and Answers] Dabble_4:
This means that if my smartphone comes with Android 12, then I can run Android 11 GSI on it?
[General Questions and Answers] Dabble_4:
My smartphone comes on 12 Android. I just tried to run using DSU SideLoader LineageOS 18.1 And HavocOS 11 Android and they didn't start. Why are you lying? My friend also failed to launch 11 Android GSI, because he has 13 Android.
[General Questions and Answers] Dabble_4:
If Android 13 is installed on your smartphone, then the GSI will not start below it.. And this is a stupid restriction.
[General Questions and Answers] asdf2345:
I'm curious, what phone do you have? Did you wipe data and all? Did you pick the right a, b, a/b version? Is there any logs to go off of?

Also I'm curious if you could try these, I doubt they'd do anything different, but they would be what I'm interested in.

[Samsung Galaxy A51 Questions & Answers] BigBurth:
i bought this phone off ebay, after calling tracfone i have been informed that i can't unlock without contining to use the darn thing for the next 10 months whilst paying and the last people i want to pay are tracfone

my main reason for doing this is to 1 get my textnow simcard working on it and 2 to maybe root or flash a custom rom on it

so

i have looked online on ways to unlock the device but so far nothing seems to be set in stone about it

so let me ask a few things in a listing format

1) if i flash new firmware with odin or a modded odin with a diffrent CSC does that change if i can use my textnow sim or not

View attachment 5951717

i have the TFN version but if i flash TFV will it mean that i can use the device with my old sim

i have also looked into the files of most of the versions and they all contain a

CSC_TFN_S515DLTFNCFWD2_QB63881448_REV00_user_low_ship.tar.md5.zip

file, so idk if it's even worth it

2) is their a way to root or unlock the bootloader without having the OEM unlocking on the device

3) should i just get the TCL 10 5G UW - 128 GB instead

in the end if they are no options i will just return the device and buy another but i really like this phone alot and am quite attached already i wouldn't like to return it

[OnePlus 8T Questions & Answers] silentrawr:
Got a used KB2005 off Ebay - or so I thought - because now after unlocking the bootloader and doing the full LineageOS 13 install, 5G isn't working (even though the icon is showing up). The device is being listed in the Android section as well as to 3rd party apps (CPU-Z) as a KB2001, and I'm in NA, which would explain why 5G isn't working since it doesn't have the correct bands.

Tried a new SIM, double-checked my account, and tried both old/new SIMs on my old KB2007 - they're still pulling all the usual 5G bands and speed. It's just not working on the new device.

Anyway, that's my main question - could something I flashed onto the device have "turned it into" a KB2001, thus ****ing me out of the 5G bands I need? If so, can I just get the right firmware for a KB2005 and re-flash it?
[OnePlus 8T Questions & Answers] TechX1991:
As far as I'm aware, not counting GSI roms, there's only 2 roms for the 5g variant. In my past attempts in getting 4G variant roms working, they shouldn't even boot on a KB2005 5G variant, and rom creators have stated this too. Ebay seller probably got the model incorrect. Easy way to tell is throw your IMEI into something like Swappa's free IMEI checker and see what model it shoots back
[OnePlus 8T Questions & Answers] silentrawr:
Yep, that solves it - it's a KB2001. Son of a *****...
[OnePlus 8T Questions & Answers] TechX1991:
No, you got lucky. You don't want the 5G variant. Its a pos. Granted, I hope you didn't over pay. If you want to root/rom/modify the system, the KB2001 is the one you want.

Disregard this: mixed up with the 7 pro and 7pro 5g
[OnePlus 8T Questions & Answers] silentrawr:
What's bad about it? I had a KB2007 and aside from not being able to fully root it without it being a PITA, the hardware was fantastic.

Hell, what's even different other than the alternate band 5G antennas?
[OnePlus 8T Questions & Answers] TechX1991:
Try this on your phone

1) Open Dialer App.
2) Type *#*#4636#*#*
3) Tap on Phone information
4) Select NR/LTE/TDSCDMA/GSM/WCDMA.
5) You may now be able to use 5G.

Its going to be carrier specific if the 5g bands activate though. Here in the usa, its the same headache with Voice Over LTE. AT&T, for example, on a Pixel 4A 4G won't activate VoLTE, but if you use Google Fi or Verizon, VoLTE activates

I realized I was thinking of the 7 pro and 7 pro 5g. I've owned too many oneplus devices. The kb2001 and kb2005 should get 5g. There's threads on OnePlus' community forum though with kb2001 having the same issue
[OnePlus 8T Questions & Answers] silentrawr:
Seems like the KB2001 doesn't have band 71 though, which is apparently the main band needed for T-Mobile 5G https://www.tmoband71.com/.

That command didn't pop anything up for me. Is it the same thing as selecting different Bearer types in the APN?

Will check the official OP forum as well - appreciate the follow-ups!
[OnePlus 8T Questions & Answers] silentrawr:
I saw that and appreciate the thought, but without the phone itself having band 71 (assuming I understand that correctly), it's useless to me on this phone. Used it on my last one though - a KB2007 - when I was rooting it though, so thanks!
[Nubia Red Magic 7] sreehari.007:
I want to know if some one can help me with enabling 5g on redmagic 7 in india
[Nubia Red Magic 7] hackthis02:
There a lot of depends on that. Which provider are you on? Which bands do they support? Do they allow 5G BYODs on their network?
[Nubia Red Magic 7] sreehari.007:
I am on jio Kerala circle..

Jio 5G is available on the n28, n78, and n258 bands.
[Nubia Red Magic 7] hackthis02:
As seen here the RM7 only supports the n78 band. You have to go into your sim card settings in setting and select network type at 5G/4G/3G/2G. Then if your network provisions it, it should work?
[Nubia Red Magic 7] sreehari.007:
My network type is always 5G/4G/3G/2G

I m not receiving any 5g network
[Nubia Red Magic 7] sreehari.007:
Mine too airtel 5g works bdw..

Any solution?
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Cowdoy24:
Good Evening all.

I work at a tech store, we do pretty much any kind of IT work as-long as it pays. Recently I had to reload a Samsung Device with Odin which brought My attention to the XDA community. I have been intrigued by the idea of loading a Samsung device with a Linux based OS.

I haven't Looked TOO far into how everything works but I will figure things out as I go along.

I have some experience with Linux and love the idea of using SSH with a Samsung phone. Anyway, If I was to reload a Samsung A51 with a new OS which would be the Best one to use for a tech industry. I am mainly looking for tools I could use.

Im not really sure what modding is capable of so I may have some delusions about how everything works, but I'm hoping for at least something useful to use onsite, For example; port scanners (similar to netcat), ethtool, Key scanners, any of the Nirsoft library. It may not be possible but some kind of registry scanner, Or something similar to Acronis.

Even if nothing like this is possible I am still interested in learning about modding on a samsung device. However im not too sure where to start, Whats the best OS to learn with? and what are some good goals to set?

Personally when I am learning new technology I like to set goals to aim for, For my Linux server I set the goal of making a media server. By Setting this goal I learnt alot about how the Linux OS works and I was able to achieve some cool new skills and tools.

Any information Or advice would be greatly appreciated
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] khusika:
Hi @Cowdoy24

There are lot of tech talks on XDA-Developers. As you mentioned that you are using Samsung Galaxy A51, you can go to the Samsung Galaxy A51 Forum. There are various AOSP (Android Open Source Projects) there and nothing is best about Android OS Development. If you are looking for minimal and stable stuff, use LineageOS.

If you are looking for Linux environment on Android, you can try Termux

I was wondering if anyone has started a app that has the same type of contacts tab that touchflo 3d is running, if so is there a .cab file and is it possible to make it run with Touchflo 2d?
[General Questions and Answers] nir36:
You can't use the same contacts widget on TF2D. You can create your own using flash and use it with FEWidgets/ThrottleLauncher.. if you want to request the creation of such a widget look for FEWidgets widgets creation thread and post a request there.
[General Questions and Answers] james23238:
So I would be able to implement a flash tab into throttlelauncher but not touchflo 2d....is there any thoughts of someone porting over that option or is there yet an actual manilla touchflo 3d cab ported over, or a rom with that packed into it to be used on other HTC devices?
[General Questions and Answers] nir36:
TF3D was ported but is now still in it's infant stages. Also, it requires a massive amount of power and has a few bugs. you will need a strong device to run it properly.
[General Questions and Answers] james23238:
Could you possibly give me the link to the thread were they ported it and uploaed or where they are talking about it..and also when you say a really fast device are you meaning a top wm6 device or would something like the AT&T tilt be able to run it but very laggy, sorry about all the questions..always hoping to learn more.
[General Questions and Answers] Cal-El:
Look into the Kaiser ROM development thread, There are a few ROMs with TF3D cooked into them! I have a tilt running the L26 V4 TF3D ROM, and it works great for daily use! Very stable and its eye candy! Check it out! And read everything you can!:)

Does anyone else's Pixel 6 Pro do this? It pretty much when ever I unlock, switch programs, etc. Watch immediately after unlock you'll see it.
[Google Pixel 6 Pro] liggerz87:
It's just an unlock animation I think
[Google Pixel 6 Pro] Joutcast78:
Well the problem is it does it when switching apps and booting as well. Also it goes away only when I rewrite the entire firmware from a computer, then comes back after a day or so. Could be an update but makes the phone appear buggy. I had purchased via swappa so wanted to make sure.
[Xiaomi Poco F1 Questions & Answers] hs961410:
hi guys

need little help here

got my old poco f1 out trying to flash a new rom

poco condition

bootloader unlocked

no twrp miui recovery

stock miui rom just unlocked

problem

is that if i go to fastboot mode computer wont detect the phone not the driver issue.

i tired to change the cable

usb port, computer and even the operating system

and no matter the environment the computer the laptop windows 10 windows 7 even linux it wont detect the phone in fastboot mode

whats strange is that it does detect the phone in adb mode just not in fastboot mode

so if i connect the phone in adb and type adb device the device connects

but if i type adb reboot bootloader or adb reboot fastboot it does not detect the phone

i did check device manager and its not the driver problem.

other phones get detected in fastboot.

do you think its the usb charging board of the phone thats causing this issue? should i replace the charging board of the phone?

please help

thanks for the tip

but as i mentioned its not the driver issue

nor the ryzen issue

i tried to connect with different computers different os

adb works, not fastboot.

my other phones connect just fine

very strange
[Xiaomi Poco F1 Questions & Answers] khusika:
It's better to check and try first
[Xiaomi Poco F1 Questions & Answers] hs961410:
the tip that you shared me has been tried several times.

trust me its not the driver issue nor the ryzen issue.

i even tried to connect with my old windows 7 and windows 8 laptop.

my other phones connect just fine

no connection in fastboot.
[Xiaomi Poco F1 Questions & Answers] Retrial:
Hi,

Since this is a common issue, the steps @khusika shared is the fix. No matter if amd or intel, both need the same steps.

Perhaps you are doing something wrong. Try from the scratch.

Uninstall/delete everything and read carefully the guide and also check the links there. This is what another user did to fix it.

I don't think you will find anything else about the same issue.
[Xiaomi Poco F1 Questions & Answers] hs961410:
thanks for the tip

but i really think this is not the solution

my other phones connect just fine

just my poco phone

anyway i will give another shot.

thanks again
[Xiaomi Poco F1 Questions & Answers] hs961410:
okay.

here is the current update

got out my other poco f1 out ( yes i have two poco f1)

connected to pc with fastboot

connected.

so this is NOT the driver issue

my other poco does get connected

thinking it is probably the mainboard issue or the charging port issue
[Xiaomi Poco F1 Questions & Answers] alecxs:
this is known issue with xiaomi, they messed up fastboot in bootloader. software update will fix
[Xiaomi Poco F1 Questions & Answers] hs961410:
which software update?
[Xiaomi Poco F1 Questions & Answers] hs961410:
Update

Today i replaced battery screen and charging board

Still no luck

Probably the mainboard issue
[Xiaomi Poco F1 Questions & Answers] mvikrant97:
Hey are you comfortable giving remote access to let me see why it is not connecting?

Maybe I can help you.

Thankyou.
[Xiaomi Poco F1 Questions & Answers] hs961410:
I truely appreciate your passion and enthusiasm to help me. really.

Ofcourse i am okay with the remote access

Except that this is really the hardware issue that cannot be done remotely

So

I have 2 poco f1

One that i have problem and one in mint condition. both unlocked

One in mint condition connects just fine

My other phones oneplus and other redmis connects just fine

This is not the driver nor the ryzen issue.

Once again other phones connect just fine including my other pocof1

Which concludes that this is the hardware issue

I thought that replacing charging board would fix this problem. But guess it is the mainboard thats malfunctioning.

Once again really thanks to try to help me from this problem.

Guess i have to stuck in to miui.
[Xiaomi Poco F1 Questions & Answers] mvikrant97:
I wonder how this could be a hardware issue because if other phones just connects fine.

Also you told that the phone is detected in adb mode so I would like to see what is causing the issue.
[Xiaomi Poco F1 Questions & Answers] hs961410:
Yes it connects just fine in adb

File transfers just fine.

Fastboot is the only issue

That's why I tried to replace the charging board of the phone today.

You see, if I have a driver issue like other members quoted, my other pocof1 should not be connected as well as my other phones

But my other phones connects fine. Same cable same USB port.

So after I replacing charging board I concluded that

Perhaps the main board is somehow malfunctioning. I really have no clue.
[Xiaomi Poco F1 Questions & Answers] mvikrant97:
Please let me see why. I would like to troubleshoot it.

I also have access to authorised flash tool so I can edl flash your device.

This is the second time this has happened. The Sprint Music app appears to be damaged. It doesn't recognize much of the music that is on my card. Is there any way to fix it without a hard reset? (not sure why I care! I mostly use Kinoma).
[Touch Pro CDMA] havox22:
yeah sprint music sucks....my songs only plays the first 30-40 sec and then it will stop if i got 4gb or more...i just removed it from tf3d and i use s2p ;)
[Touch Pro CDMA] sndtubes:
I think I fixed it. For some unknown reason, my TP had a folder named Storage Card and was calling my card Storage Card2. There wasn't anything in the Storage Card folder so I deleted it and reanamed Storage Card 2 to Storage Card. Now it finds the music. I guess it only looks in a folder called Storage Card and ignored Storage Card2. Unfortunately you can't tell Sprint Music where the music files are. They should fix that. At any rate, I don't use it much, anyway. I just wanted it work right. Now if we could get the GPS right, the battery life better, etc., etc.

Getting bootlooped after and having "set warranty bit: vbmeta" or "set warranty bit: boot" warnings.

Whenever my phone battery gets critically low the phone automatically goes into airplane mode to "conserve" power. At this point you usually have about 15 seconds before the battery dies which pretty much makes this so called feature pointless.

[Motorola Edge 40 Pro  / Moto X40 (China)] RZLNIE:
After successfully porting the Chinese ROM (retcn) to the European version (reteu), I found that the EU ROM did not meet my expectations.

Lack of available fonts. The Chinese ROM offers over 30 downloadable fonts for X40, whereas the EU ROM only has 5. Although the EU ROM has the capability to install them, these fonts will not appear on the Moto app and cannot be uninstalled.

Higher power consumption. This may be caused by the prohibit-uninstalled preinstalled applications from Google. I've observed that the original Chinese ROM, even when the Google Services are activated, has a 25% longer usable battery life compared to the European version.

No VPN selection in the EU ROM. The European ROM does not include a VPN function within the Network and Internet settings. (I'm uncertain about this. It's possible that there isn't a VPN available on all ROMs for the X40/40 PRO.)

Feel free to share any potential advantages the European version may have, and please correct me if I'm mistaken.
[Motorola Edge 40 Pro  / Moto X40 (China)] jimmie32:
For 2. debloating through adb probably would help.

I heard 3 is a known bug. Does the RETCN firmware have the VPN function working fine?
[Motorola Edge 40 Pro  / Moto X40 (China)] zlebors:
My experiences using RETCN:

a. No Gmaps timeline (location history is always off)

b. Can not connect to Android Auto (I use Carlinkit)

Oh, yes. Indeed, google "China" only provides limited services.

I am going to double-check the 3. (I bought another X40 three days ago) This feature was fine on my previous CN Edge S device.
[Motorola Edge 40 Pro  / Moto X40 (China)] zlebors:
as for no 3 you there's a work around to enable VPN on EU ROM.. I followed a guide on reddit but I forgot the link.

in order to get VPN working on EU ROM you need:

1. install 2 apps; App Ops - Permission Manager and Shizuku

2. Pair Shizuku with your phone wireless adb debugging

3. open App Ops and search for the VPN app

4. switch to VPN app and try to connect

5. go back to App Ops and allow the permission(see attachment)

6. go back back again to VPN app and try to reconnect

works for me on EU ROM
[Motorola Edge 40 Pro  / Moto X40 (China)] RZLNIE:
Sally, this method did not work with this version. There was no VPN app that appeared on the APP Ops. At any rate. thanks for your help.

works for me on EU ROM
[Motorola Edge 40 Pro  / Moto X40 (China)] RZLNIE:
