[Sony Xperia 1 III] ZayedCom:
Currently I'm using Xperia 1 IV pro apps and they are working with all functionality intact, I'm using them since android 12 and as far as I know the 1 III didn't get updated versions of the apps when it moved to android 13 so we're stuck with old versions of the apps from before android 12.

currently the following versions of the apps are working with 1 III fully with no issues

Photography Pro - 1.3.2.A.0.16

Videography Pro - 1.2.1.A.1.0

Cinema Pro - 1.7.1.A.0.11

Music Pro - 1.1.0.A.0.16

I tried using the latest version of the Photography Pro app from the Xperia 1 V and it was crashing constantly, an older version of the 1 V camera app works just fine even the portrait viewfinder works as intended with the new inscreen shutter button but all 1 V exclusive features crash the app and also there is no seamless zoom in the app.

I hope this help people who wants to update their apps, all the apps can be found in APKMirror.

and one last thing is there is a way to port these apps to old Xperia devices and are there is anyone who's interested in trying that ?
[Sony Xperia 1 III] Sakuu:
Just as an FYI, the photo quality massively tanks with the 1 V Photo Pro app (from 13) that is because Sony dropped support for legacy camera support
[Sony Xperia 1 III] ZayedCom:
I didn't know about that because I didn't even test the app cause it's unusable even with the older version it still crash sometimes
[Sony Xperia 1 V] HolyR6:
Hi. I've switched to the 1V due to the presence of an audio jack, which so something thats very important to me. Now that I've rooted it, I wanted to install Viper4AndroidFX on it, but the driver won't install :( it says it installs the driver, but after the reboot, it tells me 'No driver found' again. I've treid many magisk and magisk delta versions and also v4a versions, but I wasn't able to fix this issue.

pls help
[Sony Xperia 1 V] AJHutchinson:
JamesDSP works
[Sony Xperia 1 V] HolyR6:
I just downloaded the apk from this github, and it says it doesn't work with my version of android (13), as its intended for older versions
[Sony Xperia 1 V] AJHutchinson:
I download from the official site but he's the file needs installing in magisk,
[Sony Xperia 1 V] AJHutchinson:
Just had a look at V4Android and it seems to work but you need to use the magisk module, was looking as JamesDSP seems buggy and sometimes just doesn't work.

Viper4Android
[Sony Xperia 1 V] HolyR6:
thank you so much! after a bit of tinkering it finally worked! with audio modification library and selinux permissive for the driver installation it finally worked!! im so grateful, u dont even know how happy i am rn! v4a was my primary reason for rooting.

thank you soooooo much
[Sony Xperia 1 V] AJHutchinson:
Any chance you can post what you have done to get it working with the driver installed?
[Sony Xperia 1 V] HolyR6:
Magisk Delta fdac22ba-delta (25210)

Settings:

- Zygisk 0

- MagiskHide 1

- Enforce SuList 1

Modules:

- Audio Modification Library v5.1

- Systemless Hosts

- ViPER4Android Reverse Engineered v0.5.0

1. set selinux permissive

2. flash audio modification library

3. reboot

4. install v4a apk

5. flash v4a drivers

6. reboot

7. legacy mode 1

8. master limiter 1

9. v4a should be working now

10. set selinux enforcing (permissive only seems to be required for driver install)

I'm not sure if it would work with newer Magisk (Delta) versions, but this setup also hides root from all my banking apps (I'm from Germany).
[Sony Xperia 1 V] AJHutchinson:
You been able to get the new 0.6.1 update to open without force closing ?
[Sony Xperia 1 V] HolyR6:
yes. 0.6.0 didn't work, but 0.6.1 did. I just kept the audio modification library and set permissive again, and it installed and now works like a charm
[Sony Xperia 1 V] Ainz_Ooal_Gown:
Here use this one https://github.com/AndroidAudioMods/ViPER4Android/releases/tag/v0.6.1

and this specific app https://github.com/AndroidAudioMods/ViPER4Android/releases/tag/v0.6.2

no need for messing with SE Linux or anything just Magisk flash the module then install the app and play music and press the on button then you can mess with the sound tested on the latest A14...with and without AML
[Sony Xperia 1 V] paul999:
yes, the one mentioned above works, but is missing some best features. i think all the other viper4android mod doesn't work because is not compatible with 64 bit system.

playback gain control is one of the best feature but is not available 🥲 it makes everything sounds ten times better lol! nowadays i just use Wavelet app for the equalizer control.
[Sony Xperia 1 V] Ainz_Ooal_Gown:
Output Gain is what i use just to make the phone louder in both Speaker and Headphones...but Playback Gain Control is what would make my Bluetooth Car stereo louder .-.
[Sony Xperia 1 V] kingjames007:
Is Viper4Android worthy? Just asking, getting the phone in a few days, I want the best audio experience possible

Hello all!

I just turned on Narrator for the first time after getting this machine. Am using a third party Chinese screen reader. Anyway, when I turned Narrator on, it asked me to install natural voices, and so I did. The voice looks amazing, reads amazing, but it is slow on lower quality processors. Not the case here though.

I don't like Narrator, I don't want to use it. I'd rather use the screen reader I payd for. My question for y'all is: How can I get these voices to be available for any other speech application on my computer? I have this powershell CMDlet that is able to get the offline Cortana voice, Microsoft Eva and other mobile voices from Windows OneCore available, but it doesn't work for these narrator voices. Here's the command if anyone wants to see it:

cp -r HKLM:\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Speech_OneCore\CortanaVoices\Tokens HKLM:\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Speech\Voices\

cp -r HKLM:\SOFTWARE\WOW6432Node\Microsoft\Speech_OneCore\CortanaVoices\Tokens HKLM:\SOFTWARE\WOW6432Node\Microsoft\Speech\Voices\

cp -r hklm:\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Speech_OneCore\Voices\Tokens HKLM:\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Speech\Voices\

cp -r hklm:\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Speech_OneCore\Voices\Tokens HKLM:\SOFTWARE\WOW6432Node\Microsoft\Speech\Voices\

Any hints, suggestions and help is gladly welcome and I will be greatful for anything y'all say. Once again, thanks so much for even seeing this!
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] RandGor:
Hello!

I have some APKs to research, some of them are easy to decompile and compile. But not this one.

Btw, I am using latest apktool 2.9.0 on Win10.

I run this command to decompile:

And now we have files. But if we will try to build them (with no changes), we will got errors.

This way it seems something bad with this files. I have a look and understand that XML files are not okay. There are strange values like

Some people says, it may be

attributed value

.

You can download original app and try decompile-build by youself: https://drive.google.com/file/d/1vLg2oZFjSPOdtWYU9HKQr5PLwRcSwNAD/view?usp=sharing

So my question is: can we correctly decompile files with attributed values?
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] Renate:
That must be that aapt2 that's causing the weirdness?

drawable-anydpi-v24\2131428724.xml is pointing at res/raw/kww.xml

This is all obfuscation silliness, 2131428724 = 0x7f0b0574

I'm using my own tools to look directly at this (binary) kww.xml

I'm not saying that my tools are correct or that they are prepared for some new weirdness, but this is what I get:

000000 XML
000008 String pool[13]
0000d0 XML resource map
000108 selector
00012c ├──item
000150 │ │ =true
000164 │ └──shape
000188 │ │ =0
00019c │ ├──solid
0001c0 │ │ =@7F090482

00026c └──item
000290 =true
0002a4 =@7F0B0579
000300

By comparison here is a normal selector from a normal apk:

000000 XML
000008 String pool[8]
000124 XML resource map
000150 2 selector
000174 3 ├──item

[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] RandGor:
I don't think so, I still have the same errors with --use-aapt1

That's interesting, how do you find out that this files are related each other?

Can you please share your tools for Windows?

Or how can we tune apktool params to decompile apk like this?
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] Renate:
That flag is only for building.

That's all in resources.arsc which has all the small resources and the correspondence between resource ids and separate files.

They're kind of half baked, as you can see from that first conversion.

Oh, I didn't notice. There is binxml.exe, binres.exe and binxml posted in my sig.

Warning: These output line boxes in UTF8 so it's better to redirect the output to a file and open it in a UTF8 capable editor when using Windows.

Apparently aapt2 introduced some clever optimizations which has confused my dumper and also apktool.

Do you need to decode the resources? With -r it will just leave them alone.
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] RandGor:
Yes, but clicking them I got 404 code...

Thank you! That's smart bypass, but lets give time for the better solution.

I think we should decompile APK with this silly problems
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] Renate:
Oops, my bad, they weren't totally released.

Give it another go.

I have some stuff to make them work with Windows console and UTF8 (since I port them to Android too), but I haven't cleaned them up yet.
[Samsung Galaxy S22 Ultra] idmnx86:
Hi Guys, I have an S22 Ultra with Exynos with the latest stock firmware SM-S908B_EVR_S908BXXS6CWI1 and I managed to lock myself out of it because I wanted to disable the password since that was enforced by having the device enrolled with a previous employer.

Thing is all I had enbled was the fingerprint and the pattern in the end.

I forgot the pattern and now I'm in the 2h time delays, I know how to reset it it's just the data mostly photos are very dear to me and I don't have all of them synced to Google Photos (because the service crashed because why not??).

I didn't expected not to have the fingerprint as an alternate option to unlock the screen, all I want is to unlock it and recover the data, or maybe recover the data whyle still unlocked but doesn't seem to work since the USB debug feature is disabled.

I was thinking to write some custom firmware or maybe root the device but that allso seems to wipe the data.

PS: Don't worry I haven't falled to online scams that promise "unlocking with no data loss".

HELP!! I seem to run out of options!

I had mentioned this in a comment elsewhere, but incase it helps others I am posting here.

I was very surprised to see the update as the Security Update Support was supposedly supposed to end in October.

Hopefully they continue to support it, for the rest of android 14 at least, as no other phone out their suits me like the 5 does, but who knows, maybe it was a final extra security update.

I've used almost every single ROM that is available here, from vincent LineageOS Builds to LeafOS (which the developer unfornately just disappeared)

I just use ArrowOS and its been fairly stable and alright with battery life. The camera app is just AOSP and it sucks but nothing that can't be fixed with Gcam, although I lost access to the wide angle lens...

Battery is good and performance is nice too, I end up with 30% or so at the end of the day

Hello,

I love LineageOS but it's not for F4 now.

CrDroid is a very good alternative and it keep original cam app.

It's very good with battery.

I think it's the best custom rom for F4 for now.

[OnePlus 11] 954wrecker:
Thank you. Did you go from stable to beta 4 or beta 3 to beta 4? It's easy to go from stable to beta but OnePlus has screwed something up with the updater between every beta.
[OnePlus 11] shootind5nukes:
I went from stable to beta 3, then using the sysupdate I have went to beta 4 last night. works great. Took me awhile of searching through /data/app to find this. This worked for me just fine last night. It didn't reset my data either. All my stuff is still there. I didn't even mess with removing root. When it rebooted I rooted again and it worked fine.

Let me know if this doesn't work. Its the only app with the same symbol. I can keep digging if it doesn't work. Please reply if it works fine then I'll make a post with it so others can find it easier.

[OnePlus 11] shootind5nukes:
I just used another app to extract this. This is definitely the app I'm using above. Can you try sideloading the app or installing it another way? The file OPLocalUpdate was the original file I downloaded and installed. The file System Update was the apk I extracted. Not sure if it matters but I installed it on Android 13 stable. It was just still there last night when I wanted to upgrade from beta 3 to 4. I'm doing my best to help because I know it drove me nuts finding the right system update that would work.
[OnePlus 11] 954wrecker:
OnePlus ****ed something up it's ridiculous I think I'm just going to sell this thing it's annoying me.
[OnePlus 11] shootind5nukes:
Try using adb to sideload it?

adb install file.apk

Or try using the magisk module systemizer?

I know this may sound stupid but I kept looking last night and couldn't find a working system update that would install but then I noticed the original one I used was still in my app drawer. Maybe yours is still installed. I did not use the update in settings, it was it's own app in my app drawer.

[Redmi Note 11 Pro+ 5G (peux)/POCO X4 Pro 5G (veux)] Boo-Kah-Kee:
Hello,I purchased the smartphone specifically for its standalone capabilities (currently 700 megahertz, 3.6 gigahertz, and 1800 megahertz (DSS)). ✅

This already fulfills one technical requirement. The second requirement in Germany is a 5G Plus (3G SIM V4) capable SIM card and a compatible tariff. ✅

Smart antenna technologies and automatic control of network capacities make 5G Plus user-oriented, energy-efficient, with up to 90 percent less power consumption per byte compared to previous generations.Energy consumption was exceptionally high in 5G NSA mode due to frequent frequency changes.

For the Poco X4 Pro 5G, you need to activate standalone mode for data and phone communication. Simply changing the data transmission via ##4636## boosts internet connection but cuts down on calling. Have you found a solution in the meantime?
