Okay then, try downloading an app from a website and install it without using the appstore. I can do that via my G1. Also try developing an app and install it on your friends iPhone without having to submit it to anyone for pre-approval.
[G1 General] omrynet:
all i need is hebrew support in the iphone i have it for 2 diffrent company in the G1 i dont have it couse i have RC30 OTA. and not the moddified.
[G1 General] allyourbasekris:
It isn't very clear what you're talking about here my friend, are you saying you already have hebrew support on your iPhone or that you want it? Or are you talking about the G1 having different language support?

If you're talking about the G1 then there is currently a few different projects working on different language versions of android. I believe that google are working on one and that there is a project on this very board attempting to do the same.
[G1 General] omrynet:
in the iphone there is a hebrew support on software. in the G1 i cant do nothing to read only hebrew (if it read and write hebrew its will be my dream).
[G1 General] yochaigal:
If what you want is hebrew support, it's coming. Actually it's here right now, but you need root to do it.

Anyways you can't compare the two in that respect, there are over 7 million iPhones out there (it's the second most popular phone) so of course there's hebrew support. And if I recall, there wasn't for a while.

On a last note, you can't out-of-the-box use your Iphone in israel, it had to be reverse-engineered. You can of course buy an unlocked G1 for $300 that will work with an Orange SIM.

The iPhone is NOT open, it's not OPEN SOURCE, and it is way more locked down. If the G1 had had even half the popularity the iPhone had then there would be out-of-the-box hebrew support.

if you have root, you may be able to get hebrew via root on your G1:

Hag Sameach, by the way.
[G1 General] omrynet:
thanks for all but the problem is that i dont have root. i have rc30.
[G1 General] yochaigal:
Yes I understand... my wife and I both need root, not just for hebrew support but for all the cool functions that it allows.

Anyways fear not, things will change soon. There's a huge OTA update coming out early next year, hopefully they will address some of these issues as well.

Remember, tel aviv is one of the major android development locations; so I can almost guarantee hebrew fonts sometime next year. At least, that's what I've heard from everyone I've spoken to about it.

[G1 General] MacFloid:
I agree with you, at the moment. The gphone is currently as usable as the iphone at the time when it was out for 3 month. Not so much apps, mods,... you know.

I hope there will come a bypass or anything like that soon.

In my opinion signed updates violates against the opensource license.

PS: i ordered both gphone and iphone
[G1 General] jashsu:
I think this forum needs a sticky explaining what open source means and implies because not a single day goes by that I don't see someone erroneously invoking the "but it's open source!" argument. :rolleyes:
[G1 General] benmyers2941:
Quite true. Here are some good resources:

Also a reminder that while Android is open, the G1 is not Android.
[G1 General] beartard:
I wish this forum could give some kind of star-ranking to helpful and knowledgeable members. It's rare to find people here who understand what free-and-open-source means.

The way T-Mobile has chosen to cripple the G1 for users who weren't quick enough to keep root is ethically reprehensible, but not legally wrong or in violation of any licensing.

[G1 General] Noonski:
If anyone can prove that this discussion isn't leaning more and more to a useless discussion getting out of hand and is actually about developing or fixing issues on the G1 and it should not belong to be in the general thread.

Please don't hesitate to inform me.

In the mean time this thread is is closed and moved.

People might not like me for repeating this But Development threads are for development, and actually most of XDA is for Development.

If the forum would be filled with "I Think G1 is not delivering what it promised" there would probably not be Android running on other HTC phones besides the G1.

There are threads for Chit Chat and even then it would be nice if the discussion is respectful.

[Redmi Note 8 Questions & Answers] Telli-:
1. I don't think so. As I know you can't root your phone without twrp and you must unlock your bootloader for twrp.

2. No, root isn't necessary. Just use mi unlock tool.
[Redmi Note 8 Questions & Answers] MarekSurek:
When you get this error? Try rebooting bootloader or you install drivers with windows update or SDI. Check your device manager when bootloader is running.

[Google Pixel 5 Guides, News, & Discussion] zswielder:
I just haven't found a single phone good enough to upgrade to after Pixel 5. At the same time, I know I will need to move on at some point. I imagine that I'm not alone in this dilemma. The hardest challenge for me is to let go of the rear fingerprint scanner. It's unfortunate that the industry had moved away from it, even though it works far better and reliably than on-screen ones. Are there current or upcoming phones that you are considering? I've considered ones with a side fingerprint scanner, but I haven't found anything good enough to part from Pixel 5.

[Google Pixel 5 Guides, News, & Discussion] Devnikolus:
I like compact phones and bought a refurbished PIxel 5 not too long ago as there were really no options in new phones with near stock experience. One option I found while searching was the Asus Zenfone series. They are quite compact and yet don't compromise on features. For me, the issue was availability. I think you can consider that if it is available. They have side mounted fingerprint and a near stock UI.

i've had pixel 5 since launch.. and purchased it 3 times due to breaking the previous ones. I also think it's the perfect size and the internals are good enough to keep up with anything modern. Hopefully I can hang on to it for a long time.
[Google Pixel 5 Guides, News, & Discussion] ankitwashere:
Size wise s23 is roughly same. A tad bit heavier. And has the Samsung bloats
[Google Pixel 5 Guides, News, & Discussion] ronny.bruechner:
At first, I try to flash the Pixel5 with EvolutionX and as long as they support it, there are "up to date" Main- and Securityupdates.

Compared to my heyday with the Samsung SII, Xperia Neo and HTCm7, where I automatically installed new CustomROMs on the devices almost every week, or rather every night, to find the optimum, perfected by the settings of a custom kernel, the effort and, above all, the risk of a brick is now much greater than it was back then.

Just reading my way back in after so many years, also because Windows 11 is at the start instead of Windows 7, takes a lot of brain power.

If the Pixel5 becomes obsolete from a software point of view, because the hardware including the camera is still very acceptable and the size is perfect, then the Samsung S23 (possibly, if the long-term tests of the Exynos 2400 provide comparable battery life and camera results) is the best option for this excellent blend.

Almost the same size. The quality of the camera/software is also comparable due to the technical advances of the last 3 years, and support will also be available for the next few years.

Only KNOX and, according to my current state of knowledge, the very complicated situation regarding custom ROMs and the limited possibility of replacing the unnecessary ballast, quasi the complete kindergarten clicky interface TouchWiz aka OneUI, with an efficient, slim ROM, cause annoyance.

Google is exemplary in this respect, but unfortunately the follow-up
[Redmi Note 10 Pro] Clawsman:
Hi all

I haven't rooted my device yet. Been waiting for an official twrp etc.

As we know, rooting can make some apps like banking applications, g wallet etc to break.

Is there a solution to this?
[Redmi Note 10 Pro] Sheist!:
3.7 works. Not the issue. Magisk, YASNAC, and Safetynet fix.
[Redmi Note 10 Pro] Clawsman:
Nice.

So I guess the progress will be...

After fastboot flash, flash twrp, install magisk (i guess su isn't much used these day's).

And then install safetynet fix and block apps. Right?

Just making sure 😃

Is YASNAC really just another safetynet fixer.

Or, something additional?

Yeah, I checked them out. Thank you for mentioning them.

Seems like there are several options to pass safetynet. The newest version magisk seem to do the job alone.

But i wonder, isn't it just a matter of time before google decide to patch, and then the safetynet fix doesn't work anymore ? Have this been a Known cycle?

This Safetynet fix I am pretty much unknown to. Wasn't a issue back when i was busy rooting all my devices. can't recall.
[Google Pixel 2 XL Questions & Answers] abdellahboughrom:
Hello community. So I bought a used Google pixel 2 XL. The owner told me that Google services don't work and that they are disabled. He said if I enabled them, the phone will be formated and restarts from the beginning.

I already have some background about flashing custom roms.

My question is what will happen if I tried to unlock the bootloader and try any of available custom roms out here?

This phone is on Android 11 build number RP1A.201005.004.A1.

Thank you so much.
[Google Pixel 2 XL Questions & Answers] simplepinoi177:
Wait, if it is a locked bootloader, how did he disable Google services to the point re-enabling them would format and factory reset?????

I owned a taimen and I don't know of any method or situation where both of those could be on a locked bootloader. He probably manually disabled services like in App info or adb methods; but restoring any of that would not force the phone to be formatted or factory reset...!

In any case, all of that would happen if you had to flash a custom ROM which unlocking the bootloader would do anyways....

I was surprised to see that the forum for this device is still fairly active with custom ROMs for it still being discussed -- if not actively developed or worked on. It's always good to remember Forum Rule 1; Just search the threads on this forum (search term "ROM", and "This Forum" instead of "Everything" would help). Also the below subforum/section...

[Google Pixel 2 XL Questions & Answers] abdellahboughrom:

[Samsung Galaxy S23] mslezak:
I've seen many questions about KernelSU from Galaxy S23 series users on Telegram, especially people coming from Magisk.

A quick explanation of KernelSU: the Android kernel is built from source code patched by KernelSU. You flash this modified kernel (boot.img), then the kernel takes over root access for every app in the system, automatically denying anything you don't allow. This makes it very good at hiding root from banking apps and other secure apps. Also incredibly fast to configure.

So you flashed a boot.img with KernelSU enabled? What next?

First you need to install the KernelSU app. Go the their Github here: KernelSU, scroll down to Assets, click on "Show all [#] assets" and download the APK file. Currently that is KernelSU_v0.6.7_11210-release.apk then install the APK. You will now have the KernelSU app, go open it up. Click on the shield icon and click each app that needs root access, toggle Superuser, done.

View attachment 5988033

Next we need to install modules to hide root. Download 1) Zygisk on KernelSU 2) Play Integrity Fix 3) LSposed Zygisk Release 4) Knox Patch (KnoxPatch APK and KnoxPatch-Enhancer). Now go back to KernelSU app and click the grid icon on the bottom right. Click +Install. Now add each of the modules you downloaded (just the zip files).

View attachment 5988035

KnoxPatch APK runs on top of LSposed so install it after rebooting and it will appear in LSposed. Open LSposed from the notification screen and enable the KnoxPatch module.

View attachment 5988037View attachment 5988039

Now everything should just work. If you tried to run something that detected root prior, you'll have to clear that app's data under Settings / Apps / [App_Name] / Storage / Clear Data. That's it! Enjoy!
[Samsung Galaxy S23] Xceeder:
hi , i've already rooted my samsung s23 with magisk , how would i use this instead? , Would i have to unroot or would these files just overwrite magisk?
[Samsung Galaxy S23] Tito622:
Will this work on the US and Canada versions? I have a Sm-s911u.
[Samsung Galaxy S23] mslezak:
You can download a compiled kernel from the KernelSU website, for example if your kernel version is 5.15.78 (Settings, About Phone, Software Information, Kernel Version), you download the maching one there which would be android13-5.15.78_2023-03-boot.img.gz and extract the boot.img. After flashing, KernelSU is active. Then you remove Magisk (Restore Images) and use KernelSU as the guide states.

Magisk is on init_boot.img and KernelSU is on boot.img.
[Samsung Galaxy S23] mslezak:
No, you need an unlocked bootloader.
[Samsung Galaxy S23] markpanget1:
How did you install kernel su on your s23?
[Samsung Galaxy S23] mslezak:
Read 2 posts up before yours. You flash the KernelSU boot.img to the boot partition through TWRP, or through EXKM or FKM kernel managers. There is a free Kernel Flasher app I've never used that is supposed to work too. As always backup your original boot.img before flashing.
[Samsung Galaxy S23] markpanget1:
Thank you very much. Will try this one kernel su.
[Samsung Galaxy S23] funiewski:
I have a problem with flashing kernelSU boot.img. When I try to flash the correct anykernel version I got error message about no ramdisk to unpack. I can not find any solution for this.

Any one with same problem or knowledge about what I'm doing wrong?
[Samsung Galaxy S23] mslezak:
Make sure you unzipped (un gz'd) the archive to an .img file before flashing. I use 7zip which is free.
[Samsung Galaxy S23] funiewski:
I thought I should use anykernel3(correct version for me 5.15.74).

Problem solved, kernelSU flashed successfully.
[Samsung Galaxy S23] markpanget1:
How you update without losing root if firmware update is available?
[Samsung Galaxy S23] mslezak:
Update your firmware and after it is done, install the KernelSU from GitHub that matches the new kernel version like 5.15.78 or 5.15.94 under Settings / About Phone / Software information / Kernel version. After flashing the KernelSU GKI image you will have root again in the KernelSU app.
[Samsung Galaxy S23] markpanget1:
Already tried this kernel su, tried with pre patched kernel image that was provided in github releases, and also tried patching my own stock boot image's kernel, all works well, but i got only one issue that i cant live without, which is IT MESSES UP AUDIO ROUTING TO USB C. I only use usb c headset that is why this method of su is not for me.
[Samsung Galaxy S23] funiewski:
Yes, usb c audio is a mess for me too, beside that Bluetooth pairing is gone after every reboot. Bluetooth fix is not possible to flash because it can't find bluetooth library. And lastly it's annoying notification pop up about carrier software update which I can't get rid off.
[Samsung Galaxy S23] jrkruse:

Regarding Bluetooth patch, I tried to flash it but it gave me error: couldn't find bluetooth library, maybe I should flash it in Magisk before uninstalling?

Will try cid manager and sdm config. Thanks!
[Samsung Galaxy S23] jrkruse:
Yes its a module you need to flash in magisk not twrp
[Samsung Galaxy S23] zhengsmall:
I wonder how you patched your stock boot.img. Did you patch kernel source from Samsung and rebuild it? May I know what kernel version is it?
[Samsung Galaxy S23] markpanget1:
I just followed the instruction in their website.

Right here https://kernelsu.org/guide/installation.html

Under "patch boot.img manual" section.
[Samsung Galaxy S23] zhengsmall:
To my understanding, this manual section should yield same result as flashing Kernel SU patched GKI image(from Kernel SU release page) if having same KMI version, as it still uses patched GKI kernel instead of patched OEM kernel from Samsung. The main issue is that OEM kernel is different from GKI kernel. Maybe it is still needed to patch the OEM kernel source code (available on Samsung Open Source site) with kernel su and rebuild & repack the image to resolve the usb-c audio issue.
[Samsung Galaxy S23] funiewski:
If you do, could you let us know? Bcs beside usb C there are problems with Bluetooth devices. I make system rw to see if I could flash Bluetooth patch in TWRP but it gave error. Now I'm on vacation, have no possibility to play with my s23.
[Samsung Galaxy S23] markpanget1:
Yes, i also noticed that. I like kernel su because it somewhat makes my system rw, by using mixplorer, i can edit csc file directly and save it. But with magisk, i can't. Which is why need to flash magisk module to modify csc file. Anyway, i'm not that knowledgeable in patching files needed to make usb c work with kernel su, i guess I'll just wait for someone to make it. For now i'll stick with magisk.
[Samsung Galaxy S23] zhengsmall:
Yup, I am trying to figure out how to build from OEM source on Linux for the time being as I am not familiar with building android kernel. Btw, I found there is a github repo (https://github.com/fei-ke/android_kernel_samsung_sm8550) doing the same thing but just have not yet integrated latest OEM kernel source AWHR (latest release is on AWF1). Maybe it is better to work on top of that.
[Samsung Galaxy S23] zhengsmall:
I am on Magisk currently, but lots of banking apps started to detect root recently. Kernel SU maybe a saver, as theoretically it makes it harder for apps to detect root thus making our life easier.
[Samsung Galaxy S23] Michael root:
Hello guys, I have an s233 ultra and I have root with SU kernel and I want to see what the stock firmware update process is like without losing data and also root
[Samsung Galaxy S23] zhengsmall:
Sorry for my late update as I am on vacation. I published the v0.6.8-AWHR release to https://github.com/Garfield-Z/android_kernel_samsung_sm8550/releases/tag/v0.6.8-AWHR . However, I have not tried the usb-c audio yet, can you try if it works. (Better backup the stock/current boot.img just in case you encounter boot loop/something wrong after flashing this customized kernel, you can restore it back.)
[Samsung Galaxy S23] funiewski:
Will give it a try, I'm on vacation too😊, so it will be on Monday. I've no usb-c device with me. However there is a working kernelSU Bluetooth module.
[Samsung Galaxy S23] funiewski:
Now I've tested the kernel and it is success! USB-C working for sound and everything else seems OK too. Now kernelSU is working perfectly well. No banking apps discovers root on my phone. You should publish your kernel as own development topic.

Btw USB-C still doesn't work on latest kernelSU kernel from github.
[Samsung Galaxy S23] Marucins:
How did you flash that zip file to the S23U?

When I try to use FKM, it displays a message to hold off, as working with img files is recommended, and flashing a zip file can potentially cause significant issues.
[Samsung Galaxy S23] funiewski:
Flashed with ex kernel manager.
[Samsung Galaxy S23] Marucins:
It's working great on the S23U. I hope the project won't die. Maybe it's indeed worth creating a separate thread. The official support from KernelSU is weak; for example, the USB-C issue was reported a long time ago, and they haven't done anything about it.

//edit

Yet there is an issue with the service provider update...

Is there a solution to this?
[Samsung Galaxy S23] funiewski:
you can for example use Titanium, find cid manager and freeze it
