I tried T-Force. They won't do it either. From what I've been hearing, T-Mobile has locked down access even for CSRs recently - like within the last few months. I might just have to wait the 40 days, as pissed as that makes me. And on the dual sim conversion - I haven't been able to really get a sense that it works well. It seems that reporting is mixed, there's a lot of misinformation, and even for those that have it working, they had to download some file from a guy who provides no detail on how he did it. It seems risky to me.

Thanks for all the details. That's good to know that I can remain bootloader unlocked / rooted and SIM unlock after 40 days. That takes away some of the butthurt. Only some though.

What methods do you use to backup your partitions (modemst1/2, persist?, boot? anything else I should backup?)? Just fastboot?
[OnePlus 9 Pro] Appreciative:
That sucks about the csr issue. I'm inclined to not believe them. I believe that's what they told you but I ran into too many people that didn't know what was going on so I think they're being lazy and ignorant to get it done. 40 days is a long time.

For my backups, I connected my phone in edl with msm tool open (don't click start 😂) and press F8. It'll bring up the partition selection. I checked the partitions I wanted, and click the readback button. The password to readback is "oneplus" without quotes. All lowercase.

If you click start on msm, as soon as you're connected in edl, it'll start flashing your phone. It might be ideal to not even have the ofp/ops/flash file in the directory. Maybe copy the msm.exe to another folder by itself so it can't automatically start flashing your device.

I do my Magisk/root this same way. To make sure I don't grab the wrong boot.img from xda, I use msm tool to readback my boot partition (as boot image) and adb push it over to my phone, have Magisk patch it and then adb pull it back to PC and flash it over fastboot.

It's been a year or so but off the top of my head I think I backed up boot, efs/persist, modemst1/2, modem_a/b (this one is non-hlos), param and probably a couple others
[OnePlus 9 Pro] TheGhost1951:
Use msm tool readback mode. When you start the tool press f8 on keyboard, check the boxes you want to backup in the popup window then the password at the bottom box is oneplus all lower case then click OK. Click the readback button. Connect phone in edl mode and the partitions selected will be backedup to the c:\ drive.... no folder.

Hello,

I have actually be keeping my P3a xl on android 9 because of the awful ui of 12, but now almost nothing was compatible, so I was basically forced to update. After this, the lock screen has no bg on the password input screen and also the control panel is completely solid. Any fix for that?

Note:

Welcomed fixes are: adb, apps

NOT welcomed fixes are: root, bootloader unlock, custom rom, anything that wipes a single mb of my data(not system data, user data), anything that has a risk of even 1% of making my phone unfunctional.

I'm having Realme GT Neo5 running Chinese ROM RMX3706, I have a very irritating problem with Always on Display, it only shows notifications for system apps, doesn't show notifications for any apps I install, I did every possible thing, enabled notifications, disabled power saving, tried GT Mode even, but the phone still doesn't display notifications for any installed app like WhatsApp on the always on display.

I read on some forums tView attachment 6018812hat it could be a Chinese ROM restriction, any solution apart from flashing the global ROM as I'll lose NFC and OTA functionalities if I do so?

When I go to apps and show system apps to open AOD I find allow notifications greyed out and can't be activated as shown on the picture I uploaded.

Any solution please?

Instead of the MI Unlock tool xiaomi provides, I used mtkclient to unlock it as MI Unlock wasn't letting me log in with the phone number, and the other login bypass thru the menu didn't work. Now, when i start up the phone it says that it's corrupted, but if i press the power button a couple of times it boots up. My question is, should I undo everything with a very recent backup that i also used mtkclient for and try to fix MI Unlock, or should I continue the rooting process like this?

edit, note: it still says that the bootloader is unlocked, and i used the gui to unlock it.
[Redmi 9 / Poco M2 Questions & Answers] ZG_DEV:

[Android Head-Units] darobman72:
I've got a cheap Junsun head unit from Amazon and despite some of the goofy things, I'm generally happy with the $175 price tag to add Wireless CarPlay to my 10 year old truck. Its a basic 2GB/32GB Android unit, and most everything works except these the two issues.

Problem #1: Maxing out the screen brightness turns OFF the screen.

I recently did available OTA updates and when I did, noticed maxing out the screen brightness causes the screen to turn off!. If I pull down menu form the top or enter car settings, I can drag the brightness slider to 244, once I go beyond 244, the screen goes black. Is there a config file somewhere I can access to limit this slider to 244?

Problem #2: Dark Map Mode is not being detected within Apple Carplay

in my other car, my navigation will switch to night map mode using the same phone but with this Bunsen head unit, the navigation apps on CarPlay will NOT go into night mode unless I change the setting within CarPlay to "Always use Dark Maps". This is more of a would be nice. But if anyone with experience with Junsun has some insight I would appreciate it.

I have installed a file manager and tried to poke around in the system folder but this unit is a bit slow and I haven't been able to find anything yet. If someone can point me in the right direction, I really appreciate it! I have reached out to Junsun, If I do get a resolution I will document it here.

Side Note: If anyone with one of these units was told they couldn't map Siri to the steering controls, lmk and I will post how I got it to work here.

Thanks in advance.

[General Questions and Answers] Sanyam_March:
So I installed a custom rom (arrow os) on my phone but couldn't flash gapps. upon starting the rom, I manually installed all required google apps and went to make them system apps (using app systemizer magisk module, busybox and termux). Now for some reason, my gboard keeps crashing but I can't fully uninstall it as it is in /system/priv-app/ , How can I fix this mess ie, make gboard user app again, and reinstall it?
[General Questions and Answers] Sanyam_March:
Hi thank you for replying. I am rooted via magisk but as magisk is systemless root, it can't change system files.

Yes I meant the GMS. I just thought that in my stock ROM, gboard was there as a system app and I was going to use gboard as keyboard anyway, so just converted it.

Still, please help if you know someway

adb root command gives the error "adbd cannot run as root in production builds"

"To enable root access: Pick an emulator system image that is NOT labelled "Google Play". (The label text and other UI details vary by Android Studio version.)" However I am not able to understand what this means
[General Questions and Answers] Sanyam_March:
it did uninstall the app, but I don't think it removed the apk file from /system/ as reinstalling gboard from play store was instantaneous. Also the issue still persists and gboard keeps on crashing

Don't know if this makes a difference or not but

adb shell "su -c 'mount -o rw,remount -t auto /system'"

mount: '/system' not in /proc/mounts

this also came

Also, gboard is installed by the package name com.google.android.inputmethod.latin

[Samsung Galaxy A50 Questions & Answers] Jert10:
I am stuck in a bootloop. Things to know:

Galaxy A505G

Locked Bootloader, Original Rom from samsung

Debugging Mode - Dont Remember......

Phone on Android 10.

I was watching a video on YouTube, and I clicked on a comment to reply. However, the keyboard remained locked on the screen, which annoyed me, so I tried to reset the phone by pressing Power + Volume Down, but it has been stuck in a boot loop for five days

I flashed Odin 3.14.1 with the same firmware as the one already installed with HOME_CSC, the flash was successful, but the problem persists. I also updated to a newer firmware, and even though the applications were updated, the error was still the same. A505GUBU5BTC8 upgraded to A505GUBS5BTE1

Goal> To Fix Bootloop or To retrieve Data.

I also tried ADB programming, but it either reads 'sideload' in recovery, which dosent recognize much comands and I cant find OTA files to try updating this way (been reading forums, some say it helps, but i am starting to doubt this) or 'unauthorized' after the second logo appears, I suspect it's because debugging mode is off or user window not accepted as i cant access it....

Problem in recovery reads, Unable to disable quotas on dev/block/platform/13520000.ufs/by-name/userdata because system/bin/tune2fs is missing.

Is there a way to re flash this tune2fs?

Is there a program to recover my data that doesn't involve unlocking the bootloader?, as this will erase my data.

Is there a way to read the internal storage directly from the chip, if removed from device?

If I wait through three boot loops, an option to wipe AppData is unlocked. I understand that this may help resolve the issue; however, there are some app-specific data, such as notes, that I want to save. Could this method help me out of the boot loop?

My experience with recent Odin flashes tells me that this won't be helpful enough, though it seems to be an app data fault as I was using YouTube, when system failed.

Any insight could help. THXXX
[Samsung Galaxy A50 Questions & Answers] blackhawk:
The critical data should have been backed up...

Generally Samsung's don't boot loop unless there's an unstable app, a hardware failure or rarely a single event upset.

Before you muck with the firmware a factory reset is the best option on a stock Samsung.

Then be careful what you install. If you have expandable storage use an unencrypted SD card as your data drive in the future; all critical data goes there.

Recovering the data now will be dicey at best. Maybe someone has a better plan...
[Samsung Galaxy A50 Questions & Answers] Jert10:
Thank you for your advice. It does have an SD card slot. However, based on my experience, SD card data tends to corrupt more easily with frequent access. In fact, I had one with photos, but it kept becoming corrupt or unreadable. So, I decided to stop using it. Happened with several.

Maybe it is safer from the system, but it's also more easily corrupted by use., which makes it riskier........ It is a MicroSD HC Kingston.

So, yes, I will have to do backups more often, but rest assured, I will not leave my data in the hands of buggy SD cards anymore

Anyone else care to weigh in with solutions to the original problem?
[Samsung Galaxy A50 Questions & Answers] blackhawk:
Use Sandisk Extreme V-60 rated, format in phone before use then leave it there. Do uploads/downloads through the device.

Never share it with another device.

Protect from extreme heat or cold.

Dismount card before pulling it and observe ESD protocols when handling to be on the safe side.

Organize critic data so backups can be made from the SD card. Super data like photos can be duplicated on internal memory as well or vice versa.

You can only have one dcim folder, rename a second one without dcim in the folder name!

I've used these cards in my N10+'s for years with lots of write cycles. Zero failures. The oldest one will be 4 yo soon.

Any drive can fail but these SD cards are fast, reliable and have never caused me any data lose to date. Any card that behaves erratically ie dismounts by itself should be considered defective and replaced.

A dual drive computer is the best setup you can possibly have, make use of this resource.
[Samsung Galaxy A50 Questions & Answers] Jert10:
Yea that will search that SD Card and maybe give it a try.........

2125 model, magisk 26.3

I did the normal routine to keep root, Restore image, upgrade, magisk patch to inactive slot (slot_b), but after I rebooted I booted to a crash dump. I tried booting off a stock 591 image but it still crashed.

I switched back to slot_a and was luckily able to boot back to the 590 image and everything was back to normal. But.. what are my options here? I don't mind skipping the 591 update but do I need to do anything to slot_b while I wait for the next update? This is new territory for me. I haven't installed any new magisk modules in quite awhile so I don't think they are the issue.

Thanks in advance.

Its a long shot but have you tried flashing stock 591 boot.img into slot_b? If you have not done any other modification to any of the other partitions, this is the only thing that has changed. You should be able to get a copy of the 591 boot.img from the link in the post above.

I did try that before reverting to slot_a and got the same result.
[OnePlus 9 Pro] TENlll423:
The same exact thing happened to me. I have the same model and I was using the same magisk..

I didn't have a computer available so what I did was got it to boot from Qualcomm crash dump into The stock recovery. I than wiped my phone by formatting data. That got me back to a clean 590.

I set up my phone ( Which took forever and it sucked. I didn't have anything backed up like an idiot lost all kinds of ****) and ordered a $130 refurbished Dell windows 11 laptop off eBay. Lol (got the laptop in 2 days)

When I got my computer set up and put minimal ADB fastboot on it I found a .591 patched boot image off of XDA. I then booted up that patch image with fastboot and rooted 591 and I'm good to go now 🤦. That's the first time I've ever had an issue with updating my 9 pro and I have had this phone since it first released..

I'm having trouble quoting messages on here for some reason. Sometimes it works and sometimes it doesn't.

I did try using a 591 Magisk image that someone else built and that also didn't work.
[OnePlus 9 Pro] jbradshw:
I'm resurrecting this as I was never able to get 591 running (I tried various boot images and none of them worked), and I see update 592 is coming. I'm still running on 590 (slot_a) with 591 on slot_b. 590 currently begs me to reboot to "finish the update" the system which I constantly reject (because it will fail). Will I even get an option to update to 592 from 590? If not, what are my options here? I was able to use the Oxygen Updater to grab the 592 incremental earlier today which is sitting ready to install but I'm hesitant to even try that.
[OnePlus 9 Pro] Z-Blade:
you should be able to jump from 590 to 592 but I highly recommend you backup all of your data since you are already encountering issues, it may fail to update to 592 and you may need to MSM to get back to a working ROM.
[OnePlus 9 Pro] jbradshw:
OK so 592 and 593 also failed (still trying to update from 590), but they gave a dm-verity error on boot which is new. I googled and tried to extract the vbmeta from the 593 incremental payload but it failed to extract it (gave a weird error). I grabbed the 592 full rom payload and was able to extract it but slot_b is on 593 and not on 592 anymore so i don't want to use that file.

Is someone able to send me a LE2125 593 vbmeta file for me to try and flash? Or if someone has an alternate option I can try to resolve this?

I'm really trying to not use the MSM tool unless absolutely necessary.
[OnePlus 9 Pro] jbradshw:
I used another tool to extract from payload.bin and it worked but when I tried to flash the 593 vbmeta.img on slot_b (593) I got this:

fastboot flash vbmeta --disable-verity --disable-verification Downloads/vbmeta.img

fastboot: error: Failed to find AVB_MAGIC at offset: 0

[ble: exit 1]

I feel like slot_b is just corrupted at this point. Is it possible to just copy slot_a to slot_b so 590 exists in both slots?
[OnePlus 9 Pro] Z-Blade:
Wow, you haven't gotten this fixed yet. I didn't read everything but you have tried using MSM to revert back to stock OOS 11 and go through the update process again?

You can't copy slot a to slot b, the whole point of the slots is to keep the partitions separate. The only time I am aware an image will be flashed to both a and b is when you use MSM for a complete restore. From there each update will alternate between a and b.
