[Samsung Galaxy A90 5G Questions & Answers] V0latyle:
I'm not sure what you're missing. Boot to TWRP, tap Install, select the GSI, select the /system partition.
[Samsung Galaxy A90 5G Questions & Answers] yoonhyukjung:
Thank you for your reply. After I saw it, I re-installed TWRP and new problem has emerged. The .img.xz file won't appear. I googled it, and saw someone saying that I should extract the .img.xz file using 7zip to .img file. Is that correct?

+) I've extracted the .img.xz file to .img file and now it appears. But, still there are only two options-boot and recovery. There are not any system option. What should I do?

++) I'm not sure this information will be helpful, but what I'm trying to installing is AOSP
[Samsung Galaxy A90 5G Questions & Answers] V0latyle:
Yes, you should be trying to install an .img file, although some GSIs may come in .zip with a script that tells TWRP what to do.

I'm not sure how to help otherwise.
[Samsung Galaxy A90 5G Questions & Answers] yoonhyukjung:
I just gave up installing haha. But still thank you a lot for helping me!

[Samsung Galaxy Tab A7 Lite] haleem3388:
Hello All,

My brother has received a Samsung Galaxy tab A7 lite from his school for watching lectures, but he no longer uses it. They have enabled Knox to only allow their 2 or 3 apps. Also they have removed the "factory data reset option" from the boot menu. I have tried every solution available in the internet to factory reset this device and I am not able to get it done. I have even tried adb but nothing is working. I have attached images for reference. Can anyone please help me how to get this fixed? I have attached images for reference.

While listing it shows adb sideload and then throws error irrespective of wtever commands I try

Note: I cannot access settings or any page from the tab and only able to just launch the apps they have enabled.

Update: We don't have to give the tab back, but they dont want us to use the tab for anything else either
[Samsung Galaxy Tab A7 Lite] V0latyle:
My advice is to return the tablet to the school as it is legally their property. Knox uses a hardware lock and cannot be easily removed - that is indeed the point.

Don't try to mess with things that don't belong to you.
[Samsung Galaxy Tab A7 Lite] haleem3388:
Hi,

They don't take it back or want it back, Neither they want us to use it for anything else either. They took money from us to give us this tab and hence it's not their property but they have disabled us from using it for anything else
[Samsung Galaxy Tab A7 Lite] V0latyle:
Well, it's not up to me to determine whether the device belongs to you or not. Just be warned that we do not permit the use of XDA to do anything illegal.

I would suggest contacting @mvikrant97 and see if he can help you.
[Samsung Galaxy Tab A7 Lite] MarkCollin:
As the school seems to impose restrictions and settings on the tablet, it would be best to reach out to the school's IT support for assistance.

Alternatively, there might be software tools or methods available online that are specific to your device model and its restrictions. Before attempting any actions, it's recommended to thoroughly research them and ensure they come from reliable sources.

Another option could be to contact professional repair services or a Samsung service center. They might possess the necessary expertise to address these specific issues and potentially restore the device to its factory settings.
[Samsung Galaxy Tab A7 Lite] mvikrant97:
I can certainly help him but before I can do that I need to know the country of purchase.
[Samsung Galaxy Tab A7 Lite] mvikrant97:
Where did you bought the tablet?
[Samsung Galaxy Tab A7 Lite] haleem3388:
Hi,

They procured it from India
[General Questions and Answers] underoathseven:
Just installed spb mobile shell onto my wm5 Apache... I then noticed a few days later that my MMS inbox/outbox is missing, and I cannot recieve pix/flix messages. Not sure if it is due to the spb install.. I haven't really installed/uninstalled anything else in a few months... any idea what happened/how I can fix this problem?
[Nothing Phone 2] dlads:
Hi all,

I miss the slider on my OnePlus phone, so was looking for a valid way to turn on DND, made a quick settings do not disturb widget you can turn on with a click , but then as soon as someone calls me it rings out..

Also tried the actual quick setting tile for DND and same thing..

I can turn off volume but a button would be nice.

Anyone else having this problem?

You can see the tile in the screenshot provided and the subsequent DND icon in the notification bar, yet it still rings out.

I have no schedules listed or set up, any ideas??

[Nothing Phone 2] ffejy462:
In do not disturb settings, you can select which contacts come through dnd. I'm guessing that those are the rings you're hearing....if not, chalk it up to another bug hopefully fixed on another update (which haven't gone well I've seen). Other than that, dnd is working as expected here. Scheduled and otherwise.
[Nothing Phone 2] dlads:
None are set to be able to interrupt DND.

Although it somehow says some people can interrupt?

Weird.

[Nothing Phone 2] dlads:
If I set it and reboot it works so yes I think this is indeed a bug.

Have also wiped and tested on a fresh OS, no changes whatsoever, same problem.
[Samsung Galaxy S23 Ultra] Virgo_Guy:
Anyone experienced with both of these cases for the S23 Ultra? If so which is better and why? Asking only those who have 1st hand experience with both.
[Samsung Galaxy S23 Ultra] sardelisp:
Sorry my friend , I only have pitaka. Difficult to find a user that has both.

My experience is over a year now, cause I had it on s22 ultra and now on s23ultra.

The fit is perfect , extra slim and durable!

Later case has no coverage in the upper and lower frame but has full coverage on the sides.

In the other hand pitaka is the opposite.

Another thing to consider is the back camera protection. I think later case coverage of the camera is marginal rather than pitakas which has a metal frame around the big holes.

My opinion there is no much difference at the end. The experience is unique.

Choose what your mind tells you to buy
[Samsung Galaxy S23 Ultra] _GRIZZLY_:
Pitaka (I have in my mind material and then magsafe) restrict GSM signal?
[Samsung Galaxy S23 Ultra] sardelisp:
If by gsm you mean 2g, totally not!! Even 4g is normal. Not worries at all.

no signal difference with or without case
[Samsung Galaxy S23 Ultra] Virgo_Guy:
Probably not as they advertise it as 600D aramid fiber.

But my latest experience with an "aramid fiber case" from China was horrible. Cutouts and feel of the material were very good. Probably it wasn't aramid and it wasn't plastic either as I burnt it to check that and I assume the material used was carbon fiber.
[Samsung Galaxy S23 Ultra] Virgo_Guy:
Thanks for your input. I know these points theoretically already and wish someone had 1st hand experience with both to explain some extra bits.
[Samsung Galaxy S23 Ultra] runtime_Err0r:
I was a user of Pitaka for many years but now I'm using a Monocarbon case because what the other user said, sides being exposed. It covers all the sides except the volume buttons part and it has magsafe magnets.

But I'm using it for the normal S23, not for the ultra but maybe it helps you to hear for another brand.
[Samsung Galaxy S23 Ultra] Virgo_Guy:
For S23 & S23+, the sides are fully covered from Pitaka.
[Samsung Galaxy S23 Ultra] Virgo_Guy:
Any S23U latercase user out there?..:

Any internet speed issue? Plz check with and without the case using speedtest. I doubt there's any but still want to know from real users.
[Samsung Galaxy S23 Ultra] Reaper1337:
Could you post a link to your case?

This is mine:

View attachment 5974129

Exactly the same as with the case I had for the S22. I changed it because in a fall in the forest, exposed top part filled full of tiny scratches
[Samsung Galaxy S23 Ultra] Virgo_Guy:
Just a note

:

Pitaka is a Chinese company as per Pitaka. Aramid cases from Latercase are cases manufactured in Chinese factories as well and rebranded.

It's just that Chinese global online marketplaces are full of knock offs.
[Samsung Galaxy S23 Ultra] Virgo_Guy:
Sides or top/bottom , they're doing it for the antennas to work well. Otherwise why would they do it..
[Samsung Galaxy S23 Ultra] Ertzu2680:
Hello

I have both of them. The Pitaka is the better case. It's more robust, but at the same time it's easier to install and to take of again. The Latercase is just to thin in the corners and im alw afraid it will break whenI take it of.

The overall inhand feel is almost the same, the Latercase is just slightly thinner (no magnets inside). For protection: the Pitaka is better on the up- and bottom part. Latercase protects the sides better. There is no screenprotection with either one.
[Samsung Galaxy S23 Ultra] Virgo_Guy:
I've heard the other way around - Pitaka is hard to remove and Latercase is easier.
[Samsung Galaxy S23 Ultra] hand-filer:
I've had the Latercase for a week now. It's easy to remove.

Neither will protect your phone from a 1 metre drop.
[Samsung Galaxy S23 Ultra] gsser:
Been a while since i started using pitaka, taking it off is kinda hard but can be done with patience. I work in steel industry and most of the time magnets keep collecting metal dust/shards in my pocket but can be cleaned by a single wipe. Even though my glass screen protector is full of scratches, pitaka case does not have a single small dent. My hands get greasy(not oil), after case gets nasty i just wipe it with isopropyl alcohol. Havent dropped my phone yet and i hope i wont, overall im really liking this case.
[Samsung Galaxy S23 Ultra] gsser:
F :D
[Samsung Galaxy S23 Ultra] Virgo_Guy:
It's the flimsiest amongst the rest afaik and is of 1500D aramid fiber while Pitaka is of 600D and that's a plus for the Pitaka.
[Samsung Galaxy S23 Ultra] peterg21:
In the vast majority of cases you are undoubtedly correct. That said, and I have not dropped a phone in probably a decade, whilst waiting for a cab/taxi in the lobby and juggling suitcases, I dropped my phone from a height of roughly 4 feet (say 1.2 metres) onto marble flooring. I picked up my phone and noticed very small dings on the top left and bottom left corners - not at the edge but on the flat sides. I waited until I got into the cab and took my case off, fully expecting the worst. Miraculously, and pure blind luck, the phone was completely undamaged and unmarked. Simply one lucky example. This was roughly 3 months ago and nothing has changed since.

Edit: I should have mentioned this was a Latercase (I have 3, in blue, coffee and gray/black).
[Touch Pro, Fuze Themes and Apps] ldrn:
I was trying to find a good VNC client -- I liked the zaDesktop RDP one, but that doesn't work with a Linux server, of course. I was puzzled when the very highly reviewed PT Pocket Office trial crashed and died without an error message or doing a thing... has anyone heard of this before? I couldn't find any information on it, although one other user who had a Treo had the same complaint, so it does not seem like it is just the Touch Pro.

I found ZoomVNC and MochaVNC both worked fine; the latter is able to hide a bit more of the screen than the former, so I preferred it.
[Touch Pro, Fuze Themes and Apps] fhsieh:
You may also try .NET VNC Viewer:

http://dotnetvnc.sourceforge.net/

It hasn't been actively developed for a while, but it's compact (just a single .exe, no install required) and works pretty well. It doesn't offer very many features compared to other commercial clients, but if you just need basic remote desktop it should do the trick.
[Touch Pro, Fuze Themes and Apps] pkshr:
Hey there,

You can use the RealVNC client which worked more than fine for me in my att fuze. Follow this link: http://xdaforums.com/attachment.php?attachmentid=138601&d=1229694478 .

[General Questions and Answers] rlelchev:
I have TWRP 3.7.0 installed on my Lenovo K9 phone, but I can't decrypt the data partition. At first it was asking me for a password, but when I added the password check at startup, it detected, that I have a PIN, instead of a password, but still doesn't manage to decrypt the partition with the right PIN. I tried removing all fingerprints and changing to password on my screen lock, but nothing worked. I don't want to wipe my data partition, but I don't know if there is anything else I can do. Does anyone know a solution?
[General Questions and Answers] Droidriven:
TWRP asking for a password/PIN when one wasn't set by the user is a common issue. The solution is rather simple and doesn't require remembering or entering a pass/PIN. It's been years since I dealt with this(I've had to solve this before as well) so I don't remember exactly what the solution was/is but you can certainly do some searching to find where others have corrected this issue. It is certainly posted in many different threads here where others were having the same issue.
[General Questions and Answers] rlelchev:
I searched forums, but didn't find any solution by anyone who has actually solved it. Usually they either update to the newer version, format the data partition or disable encryption. I don't want to format my data partition, as I have a lot of important files on it. All of the methods of disabling encryption, that I could find, required wiping the data partition. As for updating, I am already using the latest TWRP version.
[General Questions and Answers] Droidriven:
Try downgrading to an older version?

[Google Camera Mods] catnix96:
Please forgive me if I've made any mistakes. I'm a newbie, just starting to explore using the GGPX 4xl and GCam. (Additionally, I'm not quite familiar with the organization of this forum.) I've been researching about GCam and noticed that they are using a version with more advanced settings than what I have on my device, even though I've updated to the latest version from the Play Store. They told me that it's a modded version. So, could someone please provide me with the best version of GCam for the Google Pixel 4xl? If possible, a guide on how to install and use it would be greatly appreciated. Thank you

P/s: I am using a rooted version with OEM unlocked, Android 11 version.

P/s2: I have installed Gcam_8.7.250_beta2_MWP_Glens.apk but I don't know how to configure
[General Questions and Answers] scoob8000:
I'm a dork and do a lot of network monitoring at home. A few weeks ago I started seing some strange traffic.

I tracked it down to my wifes phone, a Oneplus 8 running Android 13.

I poked around in her phone and saw under Wifi Data Usage, System Services is the culprit. It's used 400gb so far in this months cycle. Typically 40-60gb a day it's downloading.

Oddly when you drill down into system services, none of them total up to even close to the total.

Got a packet capture from my firewall, not much to go on as it's all HTTPS traffic, but defently coming from Google ip addresses.

She doesn't recall updating anything or installing any new apps. She runs the free version of Lookout, which hasn't alerted to anything nefarious. I put add-ons detector on there, but nothing stands out. Also installed a couple other data usage tracker apps in hopes they would give me a little more granular data. I haven't had a chance to look at them again yet however.

My instinct it to wipe the phone and start fresh, but she would really rather not. I feel like there's some sort of corruption with one of the services.

One other random tidbit that might spark something. Certain apps do not provide status bar notifications any more, despite their notification settings being correct.

TL;DR: Wife's phone is downloading 40-60gb of data a day from google. Only on wifi, and typically at night when it's charging.

Traffic graph. Each spike is roughly 5gb of data transfered.

[General Questions and Answers] V0latyle:
Very strange indeed. Only thing I can really suggest is a data wipe. I assume her phone isn't rooted?
[General Questions and Answers] scoob8000:
That's kinda my thought too. Just have to convince her to do it. You know it goes playing tech support for the family. :)

Correct, no root on her phone. Pretty stock, couple social media apps, few games, etc. None of her apps stand out to me. She's usually pretty good about not clicking things or falling for stuff.
[General Questions and Answers] appendicitis:
maybe crypto mining?
[General Questions and Answers] scoob8000:
I'd suspect that would cause notable power drain, wouldn't it?

We ended up resetting her phone. Odd usage and behavior is gone. Still wish I knew for my own curiosity what it was doing...
[G1 Android Development] BAD_BOY_KIEV:
Hi!

The HTC's Service Manual 1.1 Product Features part says: "the LCD is 262K, but limited via OS to 65K" . So is there a possibility that someone will "make" the Android shine in all it's beauty in full 262K ??

Is it a difficult modification/hack?
[G1 Android Development] jashsu:
I don't think it's possible, given the OS is expecting to interact with the framebuffer in 16-bit. Not impossible, but just prohibitively difficult.
[G1 Android Development] pdspatrick:
Seems to me its limited because Android is also designed to run on lower-end phones (dont wanna have to recompress to 65k for a different device)

Also willing to bet that the driver is only written to support 65k, (see above)

If someone wants to prove me wrong and hack it to work otherwise, I'd be happy to help :p

Hey Folks,

So can I just check the charger that comes in the box with the 6 Classic is not a fast charger?

Bit rude to advertise the ability then send a substandard charger in the box!

I did think it wasn't charging any faster than my Watch 3 charger or the power share option on the back of the s23 ultra. 🤔

Hello. I wanted to ask you if you use alarms synchronized with your smartphone, if so, do you have the same problem as me? No matter what ringtone I set for alarms on the phone, the alarms on the watch will always have the same sound (digital beep). No matter where I look in the settings, I can't disable it (or change it). Even if I set my alarms only to vibrate, the watch will always make this sound.
