[Redmi Note 9S / Note 9 Pro (Indian Model) Question] iostrym:
Thanks, I used official Xiaomi tool to flash my official Rom because I wanted to be able to do OTA update (and it worked because I got MIUI 14 with OTA update). So the official way is fastboot + MIUI ROM flashing tool. And I used it

But in the past I used TWRP + unlock recovery to flash and unroot my phone. maybe it 'broke' something ?

Or worst, maybe even official Xiaomi rom are not google play certified because Xiaomi didn't do the job ? For sure my last official miui13 wasn't certified and after OTA update to have miui14, again not certified ...
[Redmi Note 9S / Note 9 Pro (Indian Model) Question] NOSS8:
Currently the bootloader is locked?

This could also be because the device no longer meets the security criteria requested by Google,because Xiaomi no longer provides security updates.
[Redmi Note 9S / Note 9 Pro (Indian Model) Question] iostrym:
I don't know for the bootloader locked or not :-/ how can I check that ?

For security update, the patch a quite recent for MIUI 14 so I think it is ok...
[Redmi Note 9S / Note 9 Pro (Indian Model) Question] NOSS8:
For the bootloader:

[Redmi Note 9S / Note 9 Pro (Indian Model) Question] iostrym:
Thanks, do you think I could lost all my data with this operation?
[Redmi Note 9S / Note 9 Pro (Indian Model) Question] NOSS8:
As indicated in the tutorial, this erases the data, except if you select the "save user data" option but I do not recommend it.
[Redmi Note 9S / Note 9 Pro (Indian Model) Question] iostrym:
Yes the model is this one.

Just to understand it correctly I only need to flash the bootloader part so that it is locked again right ?

Bootloader is called fastboot, this is it ?

If yes do you know Why data should be erased ? Data are not part of the bootloader, am I wrong ?
[Redmi Note 9S / Note 9 Pro (Indian Model) Question] NOSS8:
The script does not only lock the bootloader, it formats the data and creates a new partition if necessary and installs all the system imgs.

Uses the 'flash_all_lock.bat' script.
[Redmi Note 9S / Note 9 Pro (Indian Model) Question] iostrym:
So it will also reinstall even the os using a new rom with the script ? I will need to reinstall All apps and os configuration?
[Redmi Note 9S / Note 9 Pro (Indian Model) Question] NOSS8:
That's it, you can make a Xiaomi PC backup (some apps will need to be reinstalled Google Maps, Messages, banking apps) + Mi Cloud synchronization for sms, calls, etc..

If you flash the same ROM as the one currently installed, you can also save the configuration parameters.

Once the rom is configured at the minimum, check the certification before restoring the backup folder.
[Redmi Note 9S / Note 9 Pro (Indian Model) Question] iostrym:
Xiaomi pc backup, can it be done using MI PC suite ?

Can it be trusted to restore my phone with my message (sms) for instance ? And my system settings ?
[Redmi Note 9S / Note 9 Pro (Indian Model) Question] NOSS8:
Check: settings/my phone/backup, restore or reset (may be elsewhere on your model).
[Redmi Note 9S / Note 9 Pro (Indian Model) Question] iostrym:
Ok thanks I understand. There is no need for a software on PC. I may need to have a loooot of free space on my phone because the backup data will be stored first on my phone, right ?

What I don't know is : will data from my SD card be also backuped ? There is photo category in the backup but I don't know if it will backup photo on SD card. And what about data stored on SD card by some apps? I never succeed to know this kind of stuff because app store data everywhere... Sometime the app is on SD card (not with this phone model)
[Redmi Note 9S / Note 9 Pro (Indian Model) Question] iostrym:
I don't see backup for Google message application nor for sms data (sms data are greyed)...
[Redmi Note 9S / Note 9 Pro (Indian Model) Question] NOSS8:
Xiaomi backup will create a folder in Miui/backup/all backcup and this folder must be transferred to a PC or other, otherwise it will be deleted.

This backup includes SMS, etc....

Simply place this folder in allbackup to restore your data, after flashing the rom.

Use Xiaomi cloud synchronization to have double security.

Mi pc suite is another alternative, use all 3 for more security.
[Redmi Note 9S / Note 9 Pro (Indian Model) Question] iostrym:
Ok I will try it. But Xiaomi pc suite don't work with my phone... It say your phone need to be updated whereas my phone is up to date... Strange
[Redmi Note 9S / Note 9 Pro (Indian Model) Question] NOSS8:
Post the Mi Pc Suite link.

[Samsung Galaxy A54 5G] BruceFeuillette:
Hello!

I've bought an A54 for my wife. As usual, Amazon was cheaper and the model advertised wasn't the one that was delivered. When the model was for France, I had a model for UAE.

So she don't have the possibility to user Smart Call AKA Spam Protection.

According to samfw (https://samfw.com/firmware/SM-A546E) this model is available for other countries.

Do you know which one has the ability to use Smart Call ? So I can flash another firmware to enable this function.

The funny part is that I've done the same thing for my 2 sons' A14... One is from Paraguay and the other, I can't remember...
[Samsung Galaxy A54 5G] Deleted member 12710203:

[Samsung Galaxy A54 5G] BruceFeuillette:
Thanks for the reply. I just tried on a A14, but the THL rom didn't activate Smart Call. Strange as it's advertised on their regional website.
[Samsung Galaxy A54 5G] BruceFeuillette:
Edit: it's fine, the phone CSC was set to Vietnam, so I modified it to THL and it's good 👍🏻

It's available in Argentina too, with ARA as a CSC.

I used SamFW tools to change the CSC easily. Works like a dream.

Hi I am new on forum (my account is new, before of it also I am looking here)

I have a question:

Maybe all knows odin samsung is maybe official program but there is no official release of it.

And there is so much copy-paste websites about it. If you google it you can see somany websites, looks similar,

everyone says odin samsung but it shows its not safe, no?

Is anyone used odin samsung and been hacked? or something went wrong?

Or are you using your bank apps and accounts with custom rom installed or flashed devices (mostly with odin samsung)?

And did anyone get problem like that?

If my english is not well or I did something wrong I am sorry but I am new :D

[General Questions and Answers] Yusuf.H:
is it safe? what is different from the other websites? And can you reply other questions please? thanks!
[General Questions and Answers] NeverSettle:
What shows it's not safe?

No one I can find out about has ever been hacked using Odin software

I don't understand your last question about banking apps

There will never be an official release from Samsung as it is something that was supposed to be for internal testing only. Since its leaked release though, you'll find even official Samsung documents point users to Odin. This is something that has been out for a very long time, there would be well documented problems if there were any.

Your best option if you are that worried about being hacked or scammed is to get Odin from a thread on XDA itself. At least you then know its a version people have used and it is okay.

this is a more popular one
[General Questions and Answers] Yusuf.H:
thank you for your reply.

I mean to say did someone ever used bank apps and other very important accounts in a samsung device which is flashed with odin (maybe with custom rom) ?

If its secure someone uses no?
[General Questions and Answers] NeverSettle:
If your goal is to use Odin to flash another ROM, you will need to make sure you also install something like Magisk to hide root privileges from banking apps as they don't like to be on rooted devices.

But you can get them to work with little effort.
[General Questions and Answers] Yusuf.H:
Thank you for tip but I am asking is it safe?

anyone using bank apps with samsung device which is flashed with odin?
[General Questions and Answers] xXx yYy:
IMO Odin is generally safe to use. It is a legitimate tool developed by Samsung for flashing firmware on their devices. But Odin is not officially released by Samsung, so it is not available for download from their website.

Unlesss the SU binary - what gives root privieges - is not installed as "hidden" it's easy for any banking / payment app to find it via Android's "locate" or "find" commands.
[General Questions and Answers] Yusuf.H:
yes I know it but I am trying to know is its secure or not?

Is someone hacked or get by problem because of odin? or device with flashed by odin?

And is odin users use their high security apps (bank apps, etc.) in device which is flashed by odin?

And anyone get problem?
[General Questions and Answers] xXx yYy:
ODIN does NOT root Android. Rooting Android means the SU binary - what isn't default part of the Android ecosystem - gets installed on Android by user, either temporarily or permanently. ODIN does NOT install the SU binary.
[General Questions and Answers] Yusuf.H:
Okey thanks for information. But still you didnt reply my question?
[General Questions and Answers] xXx yYy:
If you do NOT trust any ODIN release floating around in WEB then DO NOT USE them.

You instead may use FlashFire what is a custom recovery that allows you to flash firmware, ZIP files, and other modifications to your Samsung device. It is a more advanced tool than ODIN, but it also gives you more control over the flashing process.
[General Questions and Answers] NeverSettle:
I did answer this part before, sorry if I mi-represented it.

Odin is safe to use, yes you can use banking apps

Odin is just the software to use to load other things onto your phone.
[General Questions and Answers] Yusuf.H:
Thank you for it! Can you reply my other answers about pulling rom and flashing a device?

And do you use odin?

Thank you for reply,

Are you using bank apps with odin?
[General Questions and Answers] ze7zez:
Yes. Samsung with Knox Secure Folder.
[General Questions and Answers] Yusuf.H:
Thank you for your reply,

what is Knox Secure Folder? I just heard it?
[General Questions and Answers] xXx yYy:
...

It doesn't matter what tool you use to flash a custom ROM: banking / payment apps by nature are user-apps means they never are part of any custom ROM , it's on you to install them.

My last 2 cents here:

Any banking / payment app easily can detect whether device's Android is got rooted as long as the SU ( read: Switch User ) binary isn't got installed as hidden - several methods are possible to do so - on the Android ecosystem and then refuse to work.

For example:

Magisk typically stores the SU binary as "/data/local/tmp/magisk/.su" . However, the binary "/data/local/tmp/magisk/.su" can be detected by the locate, find, and where commands if the appropriate search path is included.
[General Questions and Answers] ze7zez:
What is the Secure Folder and how do I use it?

Find out how you can set up and use the Secure Folder on your Samsung Galaxy device

www.samsung.com

Do you really have difficulty finding answers on the Internet? So much has already been written.

If you unlock the bootloader on your device, you have almost no protection.

You can ALWAYS be hacked even on the most secure device, because it depends on how you use the device, not just the device itself.
[General Questions and Answers] Yusuf.H:
Thank you for your reply. And I am asking just questions wich I cant find answers. And I think this forum for asking questions, no?
[General Questions and Answers] Adramel:
Is there any way to limit battery charging to, say, 80%? So that the system will automatically cut off charging when it reaches this value? Started charging again when battery level dropped below 20%?

Preferably without root
[General Questions and Answers] EllieCat:
What device do you have as the process is different and varies in OS.
[General Questions and Answers] xXx yYy:
Use a custom kernel that has a feature called "Adaptive Charging" or "Smart Charging." This feature will automatically stop charging your phone when it reaches 80% and then start charging it again when it drops below 20%.

If you are not comfortable using a custom kernel, you can also set a custom charging limit using the Battery Charge Limit feature in Android's Developer Options menu. However, this feature is only available on some Android devices and it may not be as reliable as using a custom kernel.

If the mentioned feature is available then

Go to Settings > System > Developer options.

Enable Developer options if it is not already enabled.

Scroll down and tap on Battery.

Tap on Battery care.

Tap on Battery health.

Toggle the switch next to Limit charging to 80% to the On position.

Your device will now automatically stop charging when it reaches 80% and will resume charging when it drops below 20%.
[General Questions and Answers] Adramel:
Unfortunately, my Moto Egde 20 Pro doesn't have this option ;(

I can't install Custom Kernel because I don't have root on my phone. I haven't investigated the issue of unlocking the bootloader on this phone yet.

But I would have to have a Custom Kernel that would work in the original Motorola software because only this one supports ReadyFor (desktop mode) and this is the only function of this phone.
