If i can remember I think i downloaded it from Samfw.

You'll have to flash your original firmware boot img with a installed magisk app on tab, read the guide and check some tutorials on youtube.

Found a way to switch graphic drivers for T220

Check it out:

Change graphics driver T220

I found a way to switch graphics driver to "game driver" and "developer driver" Those are hidden and not shown in developer options. You'll have to download https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=by4a.setedit22&hl=en_US You also have to...

Thanks for the assistance! Will attempt this on the weekend for the kids tablet and hopefully breathe some life into it!
[Samsung Galaxy Tab A7 Lite] buron0.0:
Ok, status update.

Im following this guide [TUTORIAL] How To Unlock & Root Tab A7 Lite T220/T225, & Install LSPosed, Magisk, Mods and so far so good... still on step 3 (boot.img). The only difference from the guide is that I had to go to samfw to grab my release, not from samfirm.

Currently I have unlocked bootloader and Im struggling a bit with reboots (its rebooting a lot) but Ill report back.

---- UPDATE #2 ----

So, after a few reboots, Im going to root but its not going great. I currently have 2 SW grabbed from samfw and frija app and none of the files has the CP file as requested on the magisk instructions:

Reboot to download mode. Open Odin on your PC, and flash magisk_patched.tar as AP, together with BL, CP, and CSC (NOT HOME_CSC because we want to wipe data) from the original firmware.

So Im now lost. Should I flash only AP?

Answer is yes!

---- UPDATE #3 ----

I got it. Finally it booted up ok and I can confirm that I have boot unlocked and root. All the funny triangles and red alerts about the SW now... but I can live with those.

Now comes the part where I wanted to install a lighter GSI maybe? But instructions around several posts about several methods and I'm not being able to follow.

Can someone point me in the right direction?

Just an extra piece of info, my T220 reads T220XXS4CWG4.

Thanks

How did you get your screen to run at 120hz?
[Samsung Galaxy Tab A7 Lite] frudda:
If you're rooted, use SetEdit and look for "60" setting until you find the refresh rate setting.

Change it to 120. the original refresh rate is 60 on T220.

or

If you have termux from Fdroid and magisk. Install STRP Performance and run command via termux "su -c strpmenu" You also have to be rooted.

Hi, so i was trying to unlock the bootloader on lg leon h320, i did these commands:

adb devices

adb reboot bootloader

fastboot oem unlock

and when it said on the screen of the phone volume up for unlocking the phone, volume down for no and reboot the phone, when i pressed volume up, nothing happend, when i did a long volume up press, nothing happend too.

Any fix? Keep in mind i had usb debugging enabled and installed the LG Mobile USB Drivers (or was it lg usb drivers)
[General Questions and Answers] xXx yYy:
It sounds like you are following the correct steps to unlock the bootloader on your phone. If your phone gets rebooted after running the fastboot oem unlock command, it means that the bootloader unlock process has been successful. Your phone will now be able to boot into Fastboot mode without having to unlock the bootloader each time.
[General Questions and Answers] gojo123:
looks like you didnt read what i said, i said nothing happened after the fastboot oem unlock command.

it just offered to unlock the bootloader (volume up for unlocking it and volume down to not unlock it and reboot it) and the volume up and volume down didnt work.

like i said is there any actual fix?

So I present to you - Samsung Thor! ​

View attachment 6022841View attachment 6022927

So first of all, what the heck is this?​

It just so happened that I got my hands on the source code of Thor - an internal flash tool Samsung at least used... it was really, really old and so painful to get working on modern distros. I only compiled it for Linux as I really didn't bother cross-compiling to Windows and MacOS. In a nutshell - this is a spiritual successor to Odin, but it's much less user-friendly (at least it has additional features like PIT editing)

Can I get more screenshots of this mythical beast?​

Spoiler content hidden.

Can I download and try it?​

Sure! I attached an archive called Thor.zip which also includes two presentations and a leaflet for you to check out. Thor also isn't just a GUI application - it has it's own CLI which you can try out! I have removed all the "registration" required to use these tools so it should be plug and play.
[Android Software Development] TheAirBlow:
Small follow-up to the post above​

To run Thor CLI or the GUI, run thor.sh and thor-ui.sh respectively. For the arguments to work properly, open those scripts and add $@ at the end (with a space before it)
[Android Software Development] GTHOSTS:
is this real
[Android Software Development] ethical_haquer:
Like this?

LD_LIBRARY_PATH=libs/ ./thor-ui $@

I must have done it wrong, because it still says:

"/home/{name}/Apps/Thor/run-ui.sh: line 1: ./thor-ui: No such file or directory"
[Android Software Development] TheAirBlow:
That means thor-ui isn't in the same folder as the script. Fully extract the archive and edit the existing scripts.
[Android Software Development] Ulumia:
Can I have it?

I will try to compile for ARM
[Android Software Development] Ulumia:
Thor requires OpenSSL 1.0.0.0 and I needed to install libssl1.0.0.0 from the Debian archive to get the console version working

And the GUI requires Qt4 and I don't want to mess with that.
[Android Software Development] TheAirBlow:
Yes. It uses quite the gallore of old software... Last commit was on 2015. In any case, I won't ever publish it, I'll only say that it is the lapsus leak.
[Android Software Development] Ulumia:
I understand

I'm sorry to bother you.
[Android Software Development] ethical_haquer:
I now get this error:

./thor-ui: error while loading shared libraries: libcrypto.so.1.0.0: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory
[Android Software Development] TheAirBlow:
I've included most of the shared libraries required. Use the .sh script to run it.
[Android Software Development] ethical_haquer:
Thanks! I just realized that libcrypto.so.1.0.0 comes with the libssl package, so my situation was the same as @Ulumia's 😊:

I needed libssl1.0.0 for the console version, and Qt4 for the GUI.
[Android Software Development] TheAirBlow:
Oh, so those I didn't include but installed from AUR instead.
[Android Software Development] ethical_haquer:
I still haven't tried Arch out yet. :ROFLMAO:

[Android Software Development] crexcrex:
@ethical_haquer Did you get this error?
[Android Software Development] ethical_haquer:
No, I didn't get any errors about lshal, I got errors about libcrypto.so.1.0.0.

Have a look at this. What distro are you on?

Sorry for the late reply! 😊
[Android Software Development] crexcrex:
I had errors about libcrypto.so.1.0.0 too but solved them.

I'm on Artix (Arch-based distro with a different init system) and from the thread it seems to only provide a PPA for Ubuntu users.

No problems abot the late reply, it's not like we spend all day on forums 😊
[Android Software Development] ethical_haquer:
I found this, but then figured out you asked that. :ROFLMAO:

But if you are "...trying to use this to flash a custom recovery to a samsung tablet...", that's a different Thor.

This Thor (on this thread) is a Samsung-made tool to flash Samsung devices.

The Thor you linked to is an open-source flash tool made by @TheAirBlow, links for his Thor and my GUI for it, Thor GUI, can be found in my signature below. 👇 Let me know if you have any questions!
[Android Software Development] crexcrex:
I might've linked the wrong thing but the issue is with this Thor (that i downloaded from the attachment of the first post here). I also installed thor-gui_linux_0.4.2-alpha and as soon as i run Thor_GUI.py my system crashes and I only have to restart..
[Android Software Development] ARDV:
under manjaro linux:

./thor: error while loading shared libraries: libcrypto.so.1.0.0: cannot open shared object file: N

o such file or directory

what is the difference between this and this: [DEV] Thor Flash Utility - The new Samsung flash tool?
[Android Software Development] ethical_haquer:
About that error, you just need to figure out what Manjaro package provides that library.

As for the difference between the two Thors, look at this post:

Really, instead of this tool, I would use either Odin4 or the open-source Thor. Or, better yet, use my GUI for those tools, Galaxy Flasher.

Let me know if you have any further questions! :)
[Android Software Development] ARDV:
Thank you.

and i hope that you add "galaxy flasher" to arch linux user repository: AUR.
[Android Software Development] ethical_haquer:
No problem!

I hope that eventually Galaxy Flasher will be on FlatHub, AUR, etc.

Anyways, if you get a chance to try it, let me know what you think!
[General Questions and Answers] dan9er:
I am trying to transfer some game save data from my old phone to my new one. My old phone is a Nexus 6P (angler) w/ Lineage OS 15.1 for microG that is rooted w/ Magisk. My new phone is a Pixel 7 (panther) w/ GrapheneOS 2023100300 (last Android 13 version), I have already set up most of my apps on there and just need to transfer the games over.

So why can't I just transfer the data? The problem is:

Lineage OS 15.1 is too early for Seedvault, and

I've already locked the bootloader on my Pixel and can't root it.

I have used Neo Backup to make a backup of the game data on my Nexus and I have transferred that off-device. So far, I've made 4 different attempts to turn this Neo Backup into a Seedvault backup recognizable by my Pixel, but with no success.

I tried using PixelBoot's LineageOS 18.0 on my Nexus as a "bridge", restoring my Neo Backup, creating a Seedvault backup, then restoring that on my Pixel. Unfortunately, the Seedvault there is broken and just opens to a blank screen.

Then I tried PixelBoot's LineageOS 17.1 - same issue.

Then I tried Resurrection Remix 8.6.6. I was able to make a Seedvault backup, but for some reason my Pixel couldn't recognize it. I suspect it's because the Seedvault there is too old (1.0.0 vs 13-3.3). There was a format change at 12-3.0.

Then I compiled LineageOS 20 for AVD and rooted it using rootAVD, but that only supports compiling for x86(_64) ABI, so I couldn't install the games I needed to transfer the save data of.

I've identified 3 different paths to solving this problem. If any one of these "B" problems are solved, then my "A" problem above is solved (other paths are welcome, of course!):

Is there a tool to convert a Neo Backup backup into a Seedvault backup?

Is there an angler ROM that has Seedvault >=12-3.0?

Is there an arm64-v8a AVD ROM that has Seedvault >=12-3.0?

For the last point I have identified a ROM: GrapheneOS. However that is a highly locked down ROM and I highly doubt rooting it will work, which is why I'm asking for other ROMs before investing time and disk stress into what might be a 5th dead end.

And before you ask:

No, none of the games have a data import/export option. I wouldn't be asking here otherwise.

No, just installing the APK and transfering the Android/obb files is not what I want. Android/obb files are asset files, not save files.

No, again, I can't root my Pixel. I already locked the bootloader on it (which, if you don't know, you can upload a custom key and do that with Pixels) and even if, it would completely defeat the point of GrapheneOS.

I am able and willing to build a ROM from a repo, but I am not a ROM dev, so I have no idea how to integrate Seedvault into vanilla AOSP and build that. (Since I would only use it for this one purpose, I would prefer simpler ROMs that take less space on disk and are faster to build.)

I do have a TWRP backup of my Nexus before flashing the other ROMs on it, in case you need me to go back to it.

Spoiler content hidden.
[General Questions and Answers] runs:
usually just only install game's main apk then copy Android/obb into new phone no-root needed
[General Questions and Answers] dan9er:
That wouldn't transfer any of the game's save data. I can easily reinstall the apps on my Pixel, the issue is getting the save data over.
[General Questions and Answers] runs:
most game's data in Android/obb
[General Questions and Answers] dan9er:
Android/obb are asset files, containing textures, models, music, etc.

Again, I want to transfer SAVE data. These are buried inside the app's private data store, only accessible via root or the backup API.
[General Questions and Answers] runs:
if both of your phone rooted ,you can backup /restore them(like swift backup.alpha backup pro,and so on) ,if just one phone rooted ,it can't
[General Questions and Answers] dan9er:
I just merged the 2 other threads I made into this one. Please read #1 again, as I detail 3 ways this can be done.

Seedvault is a system app that uses the backup API like Google's solution but allows you to store the data locally. It does not require root, but the ROM needs to come with it.

I hope this clears up any confusion.
[General Questions and Answers] Slim K:
Hey, Just want to give some Ideas. Here are 2:

Maybe you can build your ROM for Angler using the trees from LOS for angler and the Android Pie branch of Seedvault? There is a wiki on their github detailing how to integrate it.

My device (a POCO X3 pro) is running CalyxOS (which is A13/seedvault 13-3.3 also) and is rooted. Maybe I can restore your neobackup and try to convert it to a Seedvault one. Im also ready to wipe my phone and do all of that (as long as you respond/send me your backup before monday).

If you're interested, I have sent you a pm to try and solve this.

:)
[General Questions and Answers] dan9er:
LineageOS 15.1 is A8.1 (Oreo), just one version shy of the earliest version SV supports. Even then, if you look at the android9 branch of the repo, it's massively outdated. It's before they even changed the name to Seedvault.

I'm hesitant to hand data over to a stranger, but it's just game data and I didn't even have GSF on my old phone (well, microG, but I wasn't signed in). I'll try GrapheneOS on arm64 AVD this weekend and if that doesn't work we'll schedule a time in the convo.

Past few days my POCO F3 started to randomly touch apps and in the home screen I was not able to go to the next page.

Through show pointer under developer options I was able to screen record the part where there are two deadzones.

Is this a hardware or software issue?
[Xiaomi Poco F3 / Xiaomi Mi 11X / Redmi K40] Zinnz:
Most likely hardware, can't hurt to do a clean flash, or try a different rom, to rule out a software issue
[Xiaomi Poco F3 / Xiaomi Mi 11X / Redmi K40] lack93:
Hi,

The phone was on EU rom and I tried to manually flash the latest update but still the problem was there.

Next I flashed the global rom and initially that problem was there and then then next day it started to work with no issues but after that again the same problem.

I'm still confused whether this is HW or SW issue.

View attachment 6022915
[Xiaomi Poco F3 / Xiaomi Mi 11X / Redmi K40] Zinnz:
Its definitely hw. The two years or so I've frequented the Poco f3 forums, I've never seen this issue reported, plus you ruled out a software issue by flashing different roms.

Buy a new screen+frame (pretty easy to do this yourself with a hairdryer and screwdriver, they usually include the proper screwdriver with a screen replacement) buy cheap from China something like this won't break the bank, you can do it yourself, and worse comes to worse, if for whatever reason it doesn't solve the issue, it didn't cost alot

https://www.aliexpress.com/item/1005003457071576.html

P. S

Make sure you get a screen+frame, not just the screen. And watch a YouTube video or two on the process, search specificly for videos replacing screen+Frame for poco f3.

Even if they're not speaking English in the videos, it will still give you a visual step by step guide
[Xiaomi Poco F3 / Xiaomi Mi 11X / Redmi K40] Rstment ^m^:
Hardware issue - oled is delaminating itself from the digitizer ( Xiaomi uses weakest glue imaginabe , whole panel popped out on my unit already )

So yeah , the older the phone gets it is more likely to experience this... I don't know if this can be reurbished tbh , I think no one sells digitzers online and idk if old one can be successfully reglued without breaking screen or the digizer itself...

If you're gonna buy new screen look for screen ONLY!!! Never buy screen + body combos , they use inferior materials for the body which means your phone/wireless signals are going to tank massively + the phone radiation shielding likely won't work properly ( Again depends on the quality of the body but my experience from the past tells me it's all junk )

If you can keep the original body + it's cheaper just to buy screen and not that hard tbh to replace ( You can bake the phone in oven at like 60/70C for 10 min and the screen/back cover will pop right out - tho it prolly is not safe to eat out of that oven again... If you use hairdryer same can be done , just heat the phone evenly )
[Xiaomi Poco F3 / Xiaomi Mi 11X / Redmi K40] Zinnz:
I've done both repairs and can safely say the frame combo is the easier route. But I suppose it's all a matter of opinion

Hi all,

Thanks for the suggestion of replacing the display. But, I forgot to mention that 6 months ago the display was replaced at a local repair shop.

Also, I would like to mention that sometimes the phone is working very well with no issue and then I encounter ghost touches and at times I encounter deadzones.View attachment 6025204
[Xiaomi Poco F3 / Xiaomi Mi 11X / Redmi K40] Zinnz:
100% HW
[Xiaomi Poco F3 / Xiaomi Mi 11X / Redmi K40] Rstment ^m^:
Since you say the screen has been replaced then it could be a bad glue job too... Panel needs to lay fully flat, you can detach it and examine the glue job?

I'll tell you my example, glue which holds the panel detached itself on the one side and I used it like that untill the other side detached as well (no glue holding it at that point) I waited untill that point to re glue it but by that time I noticed that the edge which unglued itself first became a deadzone... Big mistake on my part , I should have reglued it back as soon as it started detaching but after regluing it properly the dead zone went away. This tells you how fragile the displays can be...

Height of the oem glue is less than 1mm , that small of a height difference was enough to break the digitizer (Kinda makes sense when you realize this phone uses screen as the only heat dissipation method, the panel is really hot, probably close to the melting point of glue so that small amount of leverage becomes enough to separate digitzer from the glass)

Sheet like this doesn't happen on other brands, only on ximi trash tier devices all the bezels are made of plastic - manufacturer cheaped out as much as possible... even the backplate doesn't have proper contact with the CPU so the heat goes back to the display where it can cause much issue if it's not attached properly.
