[Moto E (2020)] zotics3:
I managed to brick my retus model Moto e, the phone doesn't know what it's own serial number is in the barcode tab. Somehow I managed to wipe the partition scheme and it locked the bootloader by just flashing the wrong boot.img curious if someone might have a serial number for this model that I could try on the stick Moto recovery software? Not sure on how to start fixing this.

VW don't make them, but Bury do

So I took a Bury and modified it to fit my VW car kit, and it works perfectly!

The result:

Very stylish, and uses external antenna too.

Benefits:

- Looks good, especially with VW colour scheme :-)

- Charges the phone

- Uses the external car antenna

- Info and Service buttons available & working

- Easy to fit and use

- Easy to use the built-in nav

Option things you could do (but I didn't)

- Connect headset audio to stereo Aux-In and use HTC Tytn II as MP3 player through car stereo

- Or fit an external speaker with built-in amp to get louder nav voice (I might do this)
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Accessories] DrT:
Thanks 4 sharing some info please

Your adaptation looks great. Could you post a few details as to Bury model number (the US seems to carry blackberry styles only), where you found antenna lead and any tricks you encountered.

THanks

[Samsung Galaxy Tab A8 (2021)] panowolf:
Firstly, It's been about 10 years since I bothered rooting/custom ROMs..

Been looking around to see if it's worth rooting this tablet for some possible performance increase but from what I have seen it really doesn't seem to be worth it. it seems that rooting this thing is somewhat difficult and tedious.

I have made a small attempt to put TWRP [RECOVERY][UNOFFICIAL] TWRP 3.7.0 for 2021 Galaxy Tab A8 10.5 [SM-X200] & [GUIDE] Root Samsung Galaxy Tab A8 (SM-X200/SM-X205) but even though Odin (version 3.14) says Pass/All threads completed, no matter what button combination I use the tablet only boots into stock recovery.

I really don't want to risk spending multiple hours recovering/restoring factory firmware/recovery if the improvements of using a custom ROM are not really worth it.
[Samsung Galaxy Tab A8 (2021)] knigge111:
This is a really good question! I've been confronted with the same considering. I think it's a piece of electro garbage!
[Samsung Galaxy Tab A8 (2021)] kevinco1:
If it's been 10 years since you've rooted any device of course it will seem difficult and tedious. There's only a few extra steps to root this tablet which adds a total of 5 mins at the most to finish the process. Depending on your skill set and motivation it should become second nature once you do it at least once.

It's highly recommended to flash any GSI and replace stock UI. This is a budget device and extremely underpowered. There is a noticeable increase in responsiveness and every other benchmark while using any AOSP based GSI. You can also use a kernel manager and certain modules to give you even more of a boost.

While it won't come close to matching the preformance of Samsung's more expensive tablets, you'll be able to squeeze as much out of the hardware as possible and be more productive with it's use

I am running los on my samsung t-720 tablet and android paranoid on my oneplus7tpro.

All in all they are perfoming better and battery consumption is better.

But i haven´t installed custom rom on my tab a8 yet. I really miss a good "how to" and also some guidence if i shold flash a gsi rom or a complete rom like los 19... I have read a lot in this forum and i find it difficult to pick the best rom and how to flash it.

normally you unlock bootloader. install twrp or similar. Flash rom and that is it. But i am unsecure how to crack on with the a8. So if someone culd advise best rom and how to guide it would be much appreciated.
[Samsung Galaxy Tab A8 (2021)] MarkCollin:
it is important to understand that installing a Custom ROM may void your device's warranty and requires some level of technical skill. Root can help solve some problems, but it can also affect the stability and security of the device and void the warranty.
[Samsung Galaxy Tab A8 (2021)] lewmur:
This is a 2019 device, so the warranty is probably out of date anyway. But even if it isn't, Samsung will still honor it if there is a HARDWARE issue that wasn't caused by rooting or "bricking". As to "stability and security", GSI ROMs are just as secure as stock and if you are worried about stability, then you have no business experimenting anyway. IMO, the increased performance of rooted, custom ROMs far outweighs any stability issues.
[Samsung Galaxy Tab A8 (2021)] MarkCollin:
Of course, everything has its pros and cons. Certainly, if you are willing to undertake such experiments and understand the potential risks and limitations, you can gain more control over your device and customizations that match your preferences.
[Samsung Galaxy Tab A8 (2021)] lewmur:
And, of course, the novice has no business experimenting. But for those who know what they are doing, I think the risks are greatly exaggerated. And, to me, that includes just about everyone in this forum.
[Samsung Galaxy Tab A8 (2021)] MarkCollin:
I completely agree with you. When I'm not sure about something and I understand that I'm not a professional in this, I better ask someone about a good specialist who will help me in the service.
[Samsung Galaxy Tab A8 (2021)] lewmur:
It can be a little tricky but here is the way to boot TWRP the first time. First, before clicking Start to flash TWRP in Odin, click on Options and uncheck auto-reboot. This keeps the tablet from rebooting as soon as the flash in complete. Now, press and hold vol down and power for about 7 seconds. As soon as the screen blanks, switch your finger from vol down to vol up, still pressing power. Keep holding both buttons until the red nag screen appears. Then release power button but keep holding vol up till screen blanks. It should now boot TWRP. If it doesn't, it just means you didn't switch from vol down to up fast enough and you have to do it again.
[Samsung Galaxy Tab A8 (2021)] panowolf:
I may give that a shot at some point. The tablet is fairly slow so I turned to the custom ROM option only to find that things are not as straight forward as they use to be. In the mean time I have ordered a new tablet ( Lenovo Legion Y700 16g) to replace this A8 which I will just pass on to the misses since she just uses it for video/music streaming which it can still handle fairly well.

Thanks for the info.
[Samsung Galaxy Tab A8 (2021)] lewmur:
As pointed out in another thread, it is One Ui that slow this tablet down with the original settings. But there is a way to tweak those settings to fix the problem. Read post #15 in the Android 12 / Android 13 Treble Flash quide thread.

There are no custom ROMs for this device, we're only working with GSIs

For anyone new who wants to go through the root and flashing process for the first time you should know the difference between a GSI and custom ROM. It will help in understanding the process fully

As far as i know, thanks to MIUI Optimizations, the process of the camera is completely killed when you don't use it, so when you reopen the camera it lags real bad for about 30 seconds, time to start it up. I could suggest removing the optimizations.

Wouldn't it make more sense to build a kernel that adds support for KCAL and makes it possible to have more control of CPU, GPU, cores etc like most custom kernels do?

If you're looking to use the tools that come with Nethunter, it would be a million times faster to run them within your own Kali Linux distro and not on this device.

It's also not possible to downgrade to A12 and majority of users upgraded to A13 over a year ago. The user base might just be yourself

[Samsung Galaxy Tab A8 (2021)] kevinco1:
Nethunter is very specific and used exclusively in testing security for networks. All of these tools are already available to you within your distro of Kail Nethunter. They're all extremely resource heavy and even if were compatible with this device would take days to complete due to the low amount of RAM and underpowered Unisoc processor.

To my knowledge it's never been ported to a Samsung device because of differences with the OEM's kernels. Even if there was compatibility with Samsung, it hasn't been updated since Android 12. My guess is that you're already on Android 13 so there's two different reasons why you'd be wasting your time since it'll never work.

Since your goal is to build a Nethunter kernel for mobile the only way to do this is to get an older non Samsung Android device that is still running Android 12

Hi,

phone hang and after restart it bootlooped. Unfortunatelly locked bootloader.

Is there anything I can do to unlock it without loosing of the data?

Even sideload from recovery does not work.

Fastboot does allow nothing :(
[Redmi Note 11 (spes/spesn)] Sheist!:
If it is a factory ROM, you should be able to dirty flash the current version again without it destroying the data partition. This is why it does not destroy your data when you upgrade. Your recovery has an update function. Get the zip version, not the fastboot version. Put the current version on your SD. You can get it free from a Xiaomi version download website.
[Redmi Note 11 (spes/spesn)] lukasz_m:
Yes, but unfortunately I can not - from the recovery there is an option "Mi Assistant", however Mi Assistant is not able to detect it. adb is working in sideload mode, but it drops connection immediately when I try to load any zip :( with error "Connection closed cannot read.
[Redmi Note 11 (spes/spesn)] Sheist!:
I cannot recall exactly what the stock recovery looks like... is there no option on any page to allow for an update? I'd say install a custom recovery but if your bootloader is still locked, that probably won't work.

See if you have installed the USB and Xiaomi USB drivers on the computer and try a different USB port. Update those drivers and reinstall them again and retry the Mi Assistant step again. We run into that USB port problem at other times, too. This might explain why adb is not working right.

[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] xXx yYy:
A:

An Android app's version is stored in two places:

In the app's manifest file, in the versionName attribute.

In the app's APK file, in the AndroidManifest.xml file.

The versionName attribute is a string that represents the app's version. It is usually formatted as a major.minor.patch version number, such as "1.2.3". The AndroidManifest.xml file is a file that contains information about the app, including its version.

The app's version is also stored in the app's internal storage. The exact location of the version number depends on the app's configuration. However, it is usually stored in a file called version.properties.

The version.properties file is a text file that contains the app's version number and other configuration information. The file is usually located in the app's res/raw directory.

B:

An Android APK checks for an outdated app version by using the PackageManager class. The PackageManager class provides methods to get information about installed apps, including their version number. To check for an outdated app version, typically the following code is used:

PackageManager packageManager = getPackageManager();
PackageInfo packageInfo = packageManager.getPackageInfo("com.example.app", 0);
String installedVersion = packageInfo.versionName;

String latestVersion = "1.2.3"; // The latest version of the app, as specified by the developer

if (installedVersion < latestVersion) {
// The app is outdated
}
