Hi, I would like to Root my new phone. Bootloader is unlocked, installed Magisk.apk.

The phone is already updated to Android 14.

But now Magisk needs the boot.img.

Can any one give me a hint please? Where can I download it for the 10 V or how can I extract it from the phone?

Thanks for you help.
[Sony Xperia 10 V] linccracker:
download your firmware version using XperiFirm ... Then unsin the boot_x___something.sin file .. use this with magisk to create magisk boot.img
[Sony Xperia 10 V] herr.winter:
Thanks for the Hint. For everyone with the same problem: I succeeded by the following way:

googled for XperiFirm and downloaded it.

in XperiFirm downloaded the latest EU Firmware for the 10 V. The Firmware is automatically unpacked after download.

Downloaded unsin from here: https://xdaforums.com/t/tool-unsin-sin-v3-v4-v5-unpacker-v2-0.3128106/

Dragged the boot_X-FLASH-ALL-E13D.sin to the unsin.exe, recieved the boot_X-FLASH-ALL-E13D.img

Copied boot_X-FLASH-ALL-E13D.img to SD Card and patched it successfully in Magisk.

The patched file can be found in the Download Dir set in Magisk.

Coppied the patched image to the computer

Connected the phone in fastboot mode

used fastboot flash boot [patched_image].img to flash the boot image.

After booting the phone and runnung Magisk, it restarted the phone once

Phone is rooted.
[Sony Xperia 10 V] Driver1084:
Is there any way to check the boot.img for corruption before flashing it onto the phone?
[Sony Xperia 10 V] linccracker:
i would say magisk would fail if boot.img is corrupted, Just check the magisk patch display screen and make sure it is all ok.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] yux2:
since the whatsapp backup will be charged to the google drive in the next few days and I don't want paying just for my whatsapp backup, I'm currently looking around for alternatives. The easiest option is probably to make a manual backup every now and then with the "never" setting. Then another folder "Backups" is created under /internal storage/Android/media/com.whatsapp/Whatsapp. Then simply save "Backups", "Databases" and "Media" in the cloud using the sync app.

How could I automate this ?

Is there perhaps a better alternative?
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Radulfr:

[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] -SKYLINE-:
I'm wondering the same thing too. My daily driver phone (Pixel 7 Pro) is not rooted. At the end of 2022, I was able to use Syncthing and just sync my WhatsApp from my rooted Razer Phone (Cheryl) on Lineage OS to my Pixel (there was one minor issue on the different location of the WhatsApp folder on the stock Pixel 7 Pro but otherwise a success).

I'm planning on using Syncthing with my NAS on a daily basis once Google Drive starts counting my WhatsApp backup (which is like 27GB and would instantly fill up my Google Drive as I have all my messages and media since 2011).

Not sure if things have changed since but I can see the files in /internal storage/Android/media/com.whatsapp/Whatsapp including the Backups folder are updated daily.

Any reason why root (or shizuku, first time hearing this) is needed now?

[Touch HD General] pzucchel:
Hi to All,

I don't know if it it is actually responsibility of our blackstone, but i noticed that the first few seconds of each track there is a very faint noise in the background similar to "a hard disk moving", e.g. a sound that looks like a little "clang clang" in the background. Of course, the sound is more noticeable with tracks starting at very low volume. :(

i thought it was Variable bit encoding with mp3 files. So i tried with lossless formats and extraction with EAC (exact audio copy) some tracks...and the noise is even more audible because the general quality of the track is better! :rolleyes:

I have to admit: I am using the westone3 earbuds, probably the best quality in-ear headphones in the market!

The problem is present with all GSFinder, Coreplayer, WMP and HTC Player - and is independent of the audio booster.

QUESTION :confused:: do you have the same on your blackstone? do you know if it is originated by the blackstone DAC? by the 4-way jack? by the FM radio using the ground as antenna?

Ultimately: do you know how to remove it? :D
[Google Pixel 8 Pro] scootley:
I believe since the first "shipped with Android 13" Pixel device (the Pixel 7), "fastboot boot" has not behaved as it did in the past.

Specifically, if the boot image given to it (or composed by it -- see note below) contains a ramdisk, the bootloader seems to totally ignore this ramdisk and instead seems to use the kernel in that image and gives it the ramdisk that it would create normally by unifying the on-device "init_boot", "vendor_boot", and "vendor_kernel_boot" partitions, all of which contain ramdisks.

This accompanies some changes made to the boot "architecture" and partition layout for such devices where the "init_boot" partition was introduced.

Now, just because the boot partition no longer contains a ramdisk, this does not mean that a boot image file cannot contain one, nor does it mean that a bootloader cannot use one contained in a boot image file. Ramdisks were already "composite" on Pixel devices prior to the Pixel 7. "Composite" meaning that they were formed from merging e.g. the "boot" and "vendor_boot" partitions on such devices (e.g. Pixel 5). So this composite nature cannot be the sole explanation, either.

But for some reason, the Pixel 7 and Pixel 8 bootloaders have been crafted to ignore such a ramdisk.

Does anyone know why this is? By "why", I mean a technical explanation of why this decision was made and/or if there is a situation in which a ramdisk would be accepted/rejected.

I have examined the bootloader by reverse engineering it a bit (specifically the "abl" portion), and I have looked at bootloader output over a UART serial console debug cable, but so far I have not figured out the rationale for this change, any super-helpful logging that describes what is happening, nor any way to override this behavior, which is also a goal of mine in addition to understanding the reason for it.

The other other way to answer this question is if someone has insider knowledge (since the bootloader is closed source) or if Google folks have discussed it publicly somewhere other than https://source.android.com/docs/core/architecture/... pages, where it is not explained as far as I can see.

Side note: "fastboot boot" has this exotic variant of "fastboot boot KERNEL [RAMDISK [SECOND]]", where a separate kernel and ramdisk can be supplied on the command line and internally are given to a mkbootimg() function to create a boot image file. This is even more perplexing since even when used in this mode, fastboot and the bootloader do not log any issue with such a boot image and continue to silently ignore the ramdisk, even though it was explicitly supplied. @Namelesswonder has also investigated this somewhat
[Google Pixel 8 Pro] Renate:
I think that it just does the mkboot on the desktop before sending a single image.
[Google Pixel 8 Pro] scootley:
That's correct. But since this option exists, and the user explicitly supplies a ramdisk to it, you would think that the device would somehow alert the user in this scenario that this ramdisk is useless. However, it does not. This baffles me.
[Google Pixel 8 Pro] Renate:
Fastboot client doesn't have any idea what abl is doing with the image that it downloads.

This stuff about merging ramdisks is new to me too.
[Google Pixel 8 Pro] scootley:
Thank you for helping with the discussion, by the way =) I appreciate it.

Yes it doesn't know what the bootloader is doing, but the bootloader can at least return a status to the command line indicating an issue or warning, as it does with other commands:

fastboot/fastboot_protocol.txt - platform/system/core - Git at Google

Or the bootloader could report that it is ignoring the ramdisk in its log console output, which I can see, but it does not.

It does report a few lines that imply that it is not using that ramdisk, for example:

[ 10.034551] [I] [AND] using init_boot ramdisk

Yes the process of "merging" ramdisks is described a bit here:

And here:
[Google Pixel 8 Pro] scootley:
There is also a simple diagram that illustrates this ramdisk merging/concatenation here:

Implementing Bootconfig in Android 12 | Android Open Source Project

source.android.com
[Google Pixel 8 Pro] Renate:
Since it's still only using Boot Image Header Version 4, "ramdisk" in that sense refers to all the ramdisks collectively.

Which begs the question, why not merge them already and have done with it?
[Google Pixel 8 Pro] scootley:
You mean why doesn't the bootloader operate that way?

Or why don't I try doing something with my boot image?

I think the ramdisk_size property of boot_img_hdr refers to only the ramdisk within that particular image file (or partition it is written to).

I have tried merging all ramdisks from all .img files into one boot.img but so far I cannot get it to use that ramdisk either.

The actual bootimg.h file has more details:

https://cs.android.com/android/platform/superproject/main/+/main:system/tools/mkbootimg/include/bootimg/bootimg.h;l=311?q=bootimg.h
[Google Pixel 8 Pro] Renate:
No, I got confused.

I thought that memory diagram was of the boot image, not how it eventually goes into RAM.
[Honor 9  Questions & Answers] orkeven47:
Hello everyone!

Sorry I had to make a post about this.

I am wondering if there are still Honor 9 owners and users out there and if anyone has tried to install a GSI ROM recently.

Three years ago, I installed GSI based on Android 10 and then 11 as well. I have had to return to the phone because my poco X3 pro died on me last week, yet irretrievable. Thankfully, I was able to revive the Honor 9 and currently running EMUI 9 on it because I had to flash a stock ROM.

EMUI 9 is great but it is outdated. It doesn't seem to manage background apps as well Android 13 (custom ROM) on the Poco X3 Pro, or any of the former ones that I had used on said phone. Although, I do enjoy the dialer app.

Hello guys, I have two headunits which I tested for sound quality for my preference and for me fyt 7862 m500s with rohm32107 dsp sound better than ts18 unit with akm7604 dap. I wanted to improve my car audio in my Citroen c5, and there is list what I have

Sound deadening mats in all doors, front speaker morel Maximo 602he, rear focal acx165 and both supplied via kenwood kacm1814, also I tried jbl basspro nano but I prefer oem citroen subwoofer supplied with audio system carbon 130.2 amplifier.

Crossovers for front I tried from 50 to 100 and subwoofer, and for rear I use 200hz hpf.

But guys, do you have the Same problem, when I listen at low levels sound is flat with no bass and it’s not enjoyable and with higher volumes it sound ok, but when I set eq etc on low volumes it’s sound great but on higher volumes bass is killing me, what I do wrong? I know loud should be the case but it doesn’t help at all.

Also I have problem with no kick from speakers (100-130hz) but when I eq that frequency higher the kick it’s nice but when there is low long sound in that frequency I got resonance? What can I do guys?

Also there is no time correction for subwoofer so I cranked up front and back speakers (none is 0cm) - did I done it right?
[FYT Android Head Units] hal752:
I have had a similar journey to yourself but with 1 key difference. A true DSP amp.

I use a puzu c7 which links into my factory harness. Certainly brings a improvement over stock and allows me to tweek values such as the sub roll off etc.

I do really recommend these as the actual unit alone I found a little under powered. (Found the ts10 to be better than the fyt unit)

Have you tweaked the EQ? Or gone into the subwoofer settings and booster frequencies? That resonance is that you have it set to high.

Also try enabling loudness.

0cm just means it plays all at the send time with no time delay.
[FYT Android Head Units] Michalski124:
I tried tweaking everything, yesterday I found that my rca cable to sub amp was broken and it was picking up engine sound and other garbage, changed to hifonics cable and it sounds 1000 times better.

I have loudness enabled, but as I read in datasheet of rohm it has much more settings than we have in fyt unit (setting frequency of loudness etc etc)

Today I will have better cables to my kenwood amp and I will try mod with better rca inside my headunit, I will solder cables directly to rohm and I will give feedback if this enhance quality. If not I will search for external dsp but as I have kenwood amp I don’t want puzu with amp, is there any external dsp without amp? I know there is such like alpine but it is too expensive

[FYT Android Head Units] markinhosmrk:
I have used many different Chinese Android head units and was never satisfied with sound quality.

Now with a mekede unit I have gone with optical out.

I use a DAC I got from AliExpress to convert it to RCA, feed it into a DSP where I get five output channels (4 channels + sub). Then it goes to a 5-channel amp.

Sound quality is now great and fully configurable. Noticed a bug when using the radio, Android sounds are not played.

It's not perfect because the DAC is not really suited for car use... I got a 12V one so it is easier to power it. But if there is no audio signal for a long time it apparently auto mutes. Ideal would be to have an amp/DSP with optical input directly but here they are not readily available and very expensive.
