[Xiaomi Poco F3 / Xiaomi Mi 11X / Redmi K40] Mahmoud Jamal:
Hello Guys,

I need help, I have Stock MIUI 14 Global on Poco F3, battery drain is through the roof. I tried using a custom ROM like Arrow OS 13.1,

but now I have a problem that banking apps aren't working on that ROM. They just crash on startup.

Now I have couple of questions.

1. Is there any way to get banking apps working on Custom ROMs like the Arrow one?

2. If I'll downgrade to MIUI 12.5 Eu, will the banking apps work?

3. Is it better just to downgrade to Global MIUI 12.5 and get it over with?

4. what's the main difference between 12.5 Global and EU beside Dialer app.

I just need stable performance, my apps to work and long battery life. what do you guys think?
[Xiaomi Poco F3 / Xiaomi Mi 11X / Redmi K40] NoirBird:
1. Yes, Root your device with magisk and install "MagiskHide Props Config" module then spoof fingerprints to original rom. Install "Shamiko" module and black list your apps that detects root (banking apps).

2. Depends, Mostly yes if you revert any changes but not always.

3. in my opinion, No.

4. Cant help you since i dont use Miui (it simply sucks). I use Project Elixir ROM
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] VaráZsoló:
Hi everyone! I want to uninstall completely orangefox because I believe I change some settings in orangefox that made strange things.

First of all tried to flash in clean and lock mode in mi flash, but after the successful flash the original ROM it couldn't lock my phone. After I went into fastboot mode and I saw the orangefox theme fastboot subtitle not the Xiaomi original version.

It's an important thing to me because in my opinion that's the reason why I unable to install magisk modules, however the superuser working perfectly.

How can I switch it completely twrp?

Thanks for the answer!
[Xiaomi Poco F1 Questions & Answers] StationToTrain:
Hi

Is there anyone who could share a pocof1 TWRP backup please?

I have postmarketos installed, last time I tried to revert to lineage it failed due to partition issues probably

If I reinstall stock os, assuming it installs fine, I run the risk of locking the bootloader, which was an absolute nightmare to unlock

I don't want to try and unlock it again, so looking for a backup if any are available?

Thanks

So earlier today, I was trying to unlock the bootloader of my phone. I did the normal process, went into download mode, began to unlock bootloader, when it said something about my android possibly being corrupted. I checked some sources, which said to just press the power button. I did, but that resulted in it saying that it was corrupted again. I went ahead and just did the factory reset, which did fix it, but I'm still trying to unlock the bootloader. Should I try again? Is there some sort of special process I have to do?
[Motorola Moto G32] Vinifera:
i am looking for this file all over, it should be XT2235-2, b'coz i want to root my device

but either links i come across are dead or the links (from xda tutorials) that are linked to some huge archive sites

have absolutely no designations or names

this one as example: https://mirrors.lolinet.com/firmware/motorola/ or https://firmware.center/firmware/Motorola/

what the heck do i search here ?
[Motorola Moto G32] killerbees19:
Just download it with RSA? (Rescue and Smart Assistant Tool)

Which file do you need exactly?
[Motorola Moto G32] Vinifera:
i found correct one coz i looked into details of what my phone says

it was XT2235-2 RETEU

the only "problem" is ? a missmatch of versions ?

the downloaded one is newest version 34-72-31-1

while my phone is on 34-15-2

will this cause some problems with flashing ?

(i mean there is no my version shared anywhere at all)
[Motorola Moto G32] xdauser1620:
Your device codename devon and the current last stock rom of Android 12 XT2235-2_DEVON_RETEU_12_S2SNS32.34-72-31-1_subsidy-DEFAULT_regulatory-DEFAULT_cid50_CFC.xml.zip
[Motorola Moto G32] Vinifera:
what about version missmatch i wrote above ?

will flashing the rom cause trouble ?
[Motorola Moto G32] xdauser1620:
Intentionally Motorola wouldn't brick you device. They make updates so you will have better experience.

Version number changes as new updates come. Flashing a rom usually not cause trouble. They can cause trouble if the developers not tested well the software. LMSA flashing a matching rom that won't kill your phone.
[Motorola Moto G32] Vinifera:
ill be using magisk as this is mostly recommended for flash + root

is that ok ?

or i must use this LMSA ?
[Motorola Moto G32] xdauser1620:
First update with lmsa later you can bother with rooting. Magisk not needed for updating your phone.
[Motorola Moto G32] Vinifera:
any tutorial how to do an update with this lmsa ? :p

(i'm not good with phones)

for flashing boot.img

- i need full help on this, i don't want to brick my device...

i wanted to follow this tutorials:

now it seems more complicated coz of firmware mismatch

for now i have received unlock key from motorola

and i have OEM unlocked option enabled

i have adb drivers and sdk installed
[Motorola Moto G32] xdauser1620:
LMSA can flash Motorola updates as those are signed by them. Motorola supplied files work even on locked bootloader and without root.

Unlocked bootloader only needed when you want rooted phone. First you should update the phone to your desired software version.
[Motorola Moto G32] Vinifera:
so since i downloaded XML of XT2235-2_DEVON_RETEU_12_S2SNS32.34-72-31-1 (2.7 GB)

that file will update my phone right ?

and then i can use the same boot.img to root it ?
[Motorola Moto G32] xdauser1620:
You usually use the same boot img that your phone actually using. If your phone gets x update then your phone use x update and you can use the same boot.img included in update to patch with magisk and root your phone. After update you must unlock bootloader in order to root your phone.
[Motorola Moto G32] Vinifera:
except the "latest" update that my phone is "giving" is older than what

i can download, that is why i ask what i ask

so for the last time... can i update with lmsa my phone to latest version (xml downloaded)

or should i not
[Motorola Moto G32] xdauser1620:
XT2235-2_DEVON_RETEU_12_S2SNS32.34-72-31-1_subsidy-DEFAULT_regulatory-DEFAULT_cid50_CFC.xml.zip is not an xml file.

Its a zip that can be unpacked when you unpack it it will contain boot.img and other relevant files needed for LMSA or fastboot flashing. You use this to update your phone. yes you can update with this file. Doesn't matter what is your current version on phone or what it offer to you. You can even ignore lmsa if you don't like it and directly flash the img files with fastbootd.

1. unpack the update

2. use github.com/rootjunky/Motorola-XML-To-Batch-Script to convert xml to batch script

3. put all files under your platform tools folder

check the generated bat . if you don't wanna reset modemst or you want dirty flash not reseting cache with fatboot -w .

adb reboot bootloader

fastboot reboot fastboot

here you should have fastbootd

run generated flash.bat

fastboot --set-active=other

change slot

flash the same if you have AB device with two slots.

fastboot reboot

If you want rooting unlock the bootloader first.

install magisk from adb then use the init_boot.img and patch that if there is no init_boot use boot.img with magisk.

You use the patched img for flashing back rooted boot.img with fastboot.
[Motorola Moto G32] Vinifera:
now you've gone too pro :P

i have no idea what you just wrote haha

but i will try then via lmsa, and then the magisk tutorials
[Motorola Moto G32] fireangel403.sa:
Sorry for posting in an old thread. I have a question may be you can answer. I somehow ended up with an engineering build of G32. So i cant seem to get the stock boot.img for it from anywhere. I was thinking if i can flash any XT2235-3 12 rom over it without bricking the device altogether. I need to root the device so that I can export the stock firmware of it. I have posted the details in my question here
[Motorola Moto G32] xdauser1620:
Perhaps LMSA not find update because the linked lolinet devon update not compatible with Engineering build. I don't even know if engineering build will allow or not allow you to update over OTA at all. When phones get CID 000 They cannot be unlocked anymore as far as i know.
[Motorola Moto G32] fireangel403.sa:
Thanks for the prompt reply.

It seems that the bootloader of engineering build / CID 000 is understandably unlocked already. After some tinkering I was able to extract the boot.img from the running stock image using DSU side load method. At least now i would be able to install TWRP and get back to stock if things went south :)
[Motorola Moto G32] xdauser1620:
Stock engineer version has unlocked bootloader. Previously bricked phone "repaired" unofficial way is not unlocked and cid set to 000. It is not good idea to install TWRP. You should rather just boot it. If main os not boot i don't think GSI would. You need recovery superuser adb or fastboot to fix errors if something break.
[Motorola Moto G32] fireangel403.sa:
OK. I had the same hunch that it may brick the device. Can you please elaborate a bit more on this.

I want to try Andriod 13 on my device and then Andriod 14 (LineageOS) with the option of getting back to my stock Andriod 12 which for all practical uses is fine along with very good motrola apps.

I have confirmed that the boot loader is unlocked. However you are correct that when you update the stock (engineering boot loader) it gets locked again once (or gets bricked) when you update it with some other stock (retail) image. This may be because of the reason that those stock images are always boot loader locked. I have also seen somewhere (probably on lineage wiki) that there can be problems with motorola devices if you try to relock boot loader.

For this very reason, i think i should stay away trying to flash some other stock (retail) image to get it to stock android 13.

I have created an OrangeFox(OF) full backup of the running image without installing OrangeFox recovery through live booting.

My other two options are trying out LOS 21 or crDroid (android 14) images.

What i dont know is how would i be able to get back to my own stock backup (created by OF), if i dont use OF recovery?

1. I mean which particular files would i need to flash? I would appreciate if you can let me know with commands, provided i could get it to adb boot loader ? The Fox backup folder have these files. I presume that these files with .win extension are the partition backups. How can i change them to .img files. and which of these should i flash to which partition.

2. If i could not get it to boot loader. How to get it back from EDL using the blank flash image?

3. I am thinking using OF to install crDroid (andriod 14) can be better option since it supports OF and i might get back to stock by restoring my stock backup. Do you think it would work?

BTW how did you end up bricking your device? I am trying to understand and learn to avoid those steps. :)

Thanks in advance.
[Motorola Moto G32] xdauser1620:
Superuser adb is a feature of some custom rom images. If their recovery supports adb it might give enough privs for fixing your system up.

1. Backups are filesystem images in tar format which might be compressed. You uncompress it with tar then you get partition img.

If there are multiple win files you merge them then unompress.

2. You install a working os to both slots before trying custom roms. Blank flash used only when there is no other choice left. Usually you have A and B slots. There is the other slot if something goes wrong with the rom.

3. Disable anti rollback so if you restore your rom it will boot. There are no guarantees if things work. You try it and you will know if it work.

I didn't brick my device.
[Motorola Moto G32] fireangel403.sa:
Thank you for your response. I finally managed to upgrade my firmware to the latest stock firware using tinyfastbootscript and firmware for lolinetmirrors.

Hi, I would like to ask about the possibility of using the US version in Europe. I would like to buy the T-Mobile LM-V600TM versions. Is it possible to use this phone with European operators? What I need to do to unlock phone.? I could ask for some links to tutorials to assess the difficulty ?

Looking through kimovil, I noticed that the versions of the operators differ in frequencies. Will I be able to use all of them by unlocking the phone?

My operator operate on frequencies:

5g- n1 (2100)

4g - B1 (2100) B3 (1800) B7 (2600) B20 (800)

3g - B8 (900)

I'm using Bodyguardz, and have been very impressed by both the quality and customer service. Invisible Shield's are good too, and I've used them before, but the Bodyguardz beat them in my opionion.

http://www.bodyguardz.com
[Touch Pro, Fuze Accessories] wethead4:
I have used bodyguardz on my TP and invisible shield on my Tilt. I liked bodyguardz better since they actually give you 2 sets of full body protectors. also, the invisible shield version of the Tilt had a horrible fit. Also, I recommend using a different protector for the screen itself (I used the one that came in the box). the ones that come with bodyguardz and IS ruin the feel of the Touch Screen. In my opinion, it makes the screen have a slight rubbery feel to it. I also find, that response isn't as good. However, it BG protects the restof teh device pretty well.
[Touch Pro, Fuze Accessories] weaselcossey:
I've been using the ones from boxwave since I got an axim x51v. Last time I ordered something from them, they never shipped it :mad:

I was considering the invisible shield, but it sounds like bodyguards is worth a shot.
[Touch Pro, Fuze Accessories] Ovrclck:
I'd stay away from the Invisibile shield. The touch feels very rubbery, I threw it away the first week.

I've read some good reviews on Martin fields.

[Touch Pro, Fuze Accessories] weaselcossey:
I already got the bodyguardz. Haven't got a chance to put it on the phone yet. You have to spray some stuff on it before applying to the phone, and they recommend not using it for 24 hours after applying. They can't be serious, how the hell am I not gonna use my fuze for a day? I'm sure i'll find a way to eventually, or the bodyguardz will sit in the top of my closet collecting dust.
[Touch Pro, Fuze Accessories] chetmichaels:
i got the boxwave crystal clear. imo its pretty dang good, super clear, easy to apply, no bubbles...if you like the one that came with the fuze this one is like it. possibly more slippery i dont remember but really good. only thing is i paid for 3-5 day shipping and according to usps they got it the next day but the thing didnt get to my doorstep till 13 days later
[Touch Pro, Fuze Accessories] californiarailroader:
What probably happened was the shipper printed a label and by doing so notified the Postal Service it was ready for to be shipped. However, that doesn't always mean the shipper ships it out the same day.

[OnePlus 9 Pro] Mmcx125:
Hello,

Sorry for a fairly noob question (that has been answered time and again I am sure) but I am fairly new at building an android kernel.

My main goal is to build a Nethunter-enabled kernel, without the orange-state warning, and with a CPU governor that leans heavily into the power-saving side of things, even at the expense of performance. My kernel sources of choice are the crDroid kernel or the BluSpark kernel as a base (side note, huge props to the BluSpark devs. I haven't had a kernel with their level of performance or ease-of-use in customization in a long time.) but I am totally willing to start from the stock OPlus sources if that is easier.

To help a bit, I have a basic understanding of the make system, and I do have a decent grasp on the linux kernel. As far as toolchains I am by far used to GCC, but for this particular kernel it seems CLANG is the way to go (please, correct me if I am wrong or making it difficult by assuming that.) Having never set up a toolchain for CLANG, any guides for compiling an ARM64 kernel with it would be awesome. I am very proficient in C, and have no issues or compunctions with making a distribution specifically for compilation if that would make things easier (no clue if a good Docker image exists on this front, again any input is appreciated.)

So, as far as the roadblocks I have hit so far:

* I have no idea what defconfig to use. I extracted the one from BluSpark and have been experimenting with it, but as I am having issues building a generic kernel I believe this is an issue to tackle later on if needed. I cannot find a defconfig for lemonade/p/s that is stock, from what I am reading it is the lahaina config, but I am not sure.

* I am trying to build with CLANG, but it keeps giving me an error that make cannot find gcc. I believe this is because I am using sources that expect gcc and me kludging CLANG in is doomed to fail without specifically having make target CLANG/regenerate MAKEFILEs to use another toolchain. Again, this is uncharted territory for me, if it would be easier to start somewhere else I am all ears.

* I have no idea how Nethunter alters the config, therefore the script builder is a black box to me. I haven't really gotten to the point of building a test kernel, so I havent looked too much into this, but the script it uses is not particularly transparent. The documentation is decent, but incredibly dense and time-consuming to navigate. Any shortcuts or direction would be awesome.

Anyway, I am sorry if I have missed something obvious or am making things more difficult for myself, but I am at the point where the information overload is taking over and I need a guru to point me in the right direction.

Thanks for reading this, double thanks for any help, and have a great day.

Are you targeting Android 12 or 13? There are two different build systems involved. If you have Telegram I can help you out, just dm me your info.

[OnePlus 9 Pro] Mmcx125:
I dont have Telegram, and I would like to get a solution here for anyone in the future looking to build a nethunter kernel.

I am targeting Android 13, with a hope for 14 assuming we get sources in a halfway reasonable time, but thats way down the line.

Just checked and confirmed: I have to provide a phone number and Telegram does still take an IMSI snapshot. It COMPLETELY defeats the purpose of a secure, anonymous messaging system. I can't swing a burner just to join TG right now. Can anyone give me a good link to setting up a build environment/have a good Docker image to spin up and run with? I would be insanely grateful. Like, buy a case or two of beer for someone that can point me in the right direction or spin a Docker image for me.
[OnePlus 9 Pro] TICh33k:
If TG isn't secure enough for you, I've thought of moving to Zulipchat (platform that TWRP uses for their development chat) which will accept a burner email and 2 factor is not mandatory. Pretty close to having old school IRC chat.

With how involved building is, forums are not a great place to provide instruction. Documentation for this kind of stuff is sparse and is only really passed around through knowing someone. If you'd like to hop on Zulipchat, send me a dm and I can send you an invite!

Some docs to point you in the right direction just in case...

[OnePlus 9 Pro] Mmcx125:
First off, Thank You! I literally looked at the digest and that looks to be exactly what I asked for to get me on the right track.

On TG, it isn't a security matter, although the software has never been audited. It is a transparency one. I get it, any reply will be tailored to my specific environment, and even using the same instruction with a slightly different phone can (and often does) lead to disastrous result. I get it, the linux kernel as a whole is such a monstrously complex beast that I would proffer one person alive that understands it on anything near a complete level, and its Torvalds.

Im just trying to pull in ANY public documentation for building an A13 kernel, specifically targeting the Oneplus 9 series (lemonade/p/s), and further targeting the MSM Lahaina platform for kernel support.

Basically, I am struggling with this device (I still haven't read the instructions you linked, but it mentioned setting up a gcc env and building with CLANG on top of it, which is exactly what I am going for) and I would like to build a base environment that allows anyone to pull an image and build a flashable image for that Android build (I am targeting 13 here, no point in going older, and if it has to change to target 14 then I will hopefully be more prepared to handle that change through both shared knowledge and experience.) knowing that the environment is exactly what the accompanying documentation supports.

I know that my end goal here is a monumentous task. I just want to make this specific device a bit easier to mess around with.
