[Samsung Galaxy Tab A8 (2021)] 5dPZ:
I am using LineageOS 21-based GSI here - https://sourceforge.net/projects/andyyan-gsi/files/lineage-21-td/

I am running "lineage-21.0-20240201-UNOFFICIAL-arm64_bgN.img.xz", and now there is "lineage-21.0-20240217-UNOFFICIAL-arm64_bgN.img.xz"

How do I update to that version? I can't find the OTA option in the settings like other devices I have that support Official LineageOS 21 releases.

I do not want a fresh installation that have all my apps and contents wiped.

Thanks for help!
[Samsung Galaxy Tab A8 (2021)] lewmur:
There are no OTAs for GSI ROMs. You can try flashing the latest img without first wiping or formating data. I'm using the Cdroid GSI, so I can't test it. It goes without saying that you should backup everything in case it doesn't work. Personally, I don't think there is anything really important in the latest version, but that is up to you.

edit: I just tried dirty flashing the los21 image over my CDroid ROM with fastboot and all of my apps and settings appear to be OK. But I still can't guarantee it will work for you.
[Samsung Galaxy Tab A8 (2021)] 5dPZ:
Thanks for comments and testing it out. I will wait at least some months for it to be worthy for an attempt for dirty flashing.
[Samsung Galaxy Tab A8 (2021)] torben5247:
I want to upgrade my los 19.1 to a newer version.

I will flash the .img file directly in twrp. Is it the system partition i hvae to tick and overwrite.

Hello, I want to remove some pre-installed apps such as Browser and Appstore completely and permanently on the stock ROM, I mean they can't come back even after doing a factory reset. Do you know if there is any way to do that? I just knew that I can do it by installing custom ROM like Lineage OS, but with the stock ROM I am not sure.
[Redmi 9 Power / 9T] KidCarter93:
You don't need to install a custom ROM, you just need to be rooted. As long as you already are, then the tool in the following thread should do the trick perfectly for ya - https://xdaforums.com/t/2022-07-03-v0-5-1-universal-android-debloater.4069209/
[Redmi 9 Power / 9T] djnfjgsod:
thanks for your suggestions, but Factory reset completely restored all the bloatware/pre-installed apps
[Redmi 9 Power / 9T] KidCarter93:
Ah right. Here's Package Manager from the Play Store. Looking at the GitHub, it will properly delete as requested
[Redmi 9 Power / 9T] djnfjgsod:
ok I will check it
[Redmi 9 Power / 9T] naughty6t9:
You dont need to root your phone, you can use ADB to remove apps, there is a similar guide here,

[GUIDE] - Remove Huawei Bloatware Without Root Access - using ADB & USB Debugging

Hy all, As many users asked me what bloatware i removed from my phone and at Andrei Morar special request :D, I decided to create a thread with all the packages and their relative details about how each package listed here works on EMUI system...

xdaforums.com

doesnt matter what phone you have, you can remove with a similar method.

YEs factory reset wil bring the apps back so do the factory reset, then remove the apps
[Redmi 9 Power / 9T] djnfjgsod:
sorry but I want a way that apps can't come back after doing a factory reset

UPDATE! You have to flash it to a specified slot. Otherwise "fastboot flash boot magisk.img" won't flash.

Example: "fastboot flash boot_a patchedboot.img"

Be sure to put "boot_a" or "boot_b". I myself flashed it to both slots.

This is just a simple workaround so you can flash the patched boot.img. Connect your 8T to your PC and run the cmd "adb reboot fastboot". It'll reboot to recovery BUT it'll recognize your device as being in fastboot. And you'll be able to flash the patched boot.img by using the cmd "fastboot flash boot boot.img".

UPDATE: This is for the April update with March security patch. Version 14.0.0.501 (EX01) KB2003. This is the patched boot.img

magisk_patched-27000_eiP6Q.img

drive.google.com

(OLD) This is for the first version of A14 on the KB 2003. Here's the link to the patched boot.img. It's for KB2003 (EU)

boot.img

drive.google.com

PS: You can flash OrangeFox recovery that way too. "Fastboot flash recovery (name of recovery)" But it's not decrypting.

Here's the stock recovery (if you might need it for whatever reason)

[OnePlus 8T Guides, News, & Discussion] AmericanRebel:
When you used cmd to reboot did you use "adb reboot fastboot"? And did you open the cmd window with the same folder that you placed the boot.img in?
[OnePlus 8T Guides, News, & Discussion] amine tenes:
yes

I followed the steps you mentioned
[OnePlus 8T Guides, News, & Discussion] AmericanRebel:
I'm stumped. I see that once you rebooted using "adb reboot fastboot" you ran "fastboot devices" and it showed your device. But I don't understand why it didn't flash the boot.img 🤔 Oh I think I know! On your computer check the option to "show extension" for the files. Make sure that the name of the boot img is actually just "boot img" and not boot.img.img". If that's not the problem, then try a different USB port and cable.
[OnePlus 8T Guides, News, & Discussion] amine tenes:
the name of file is the same

the usb is working perfectly on my device or outher devices

and tested on windows 7 it's the same probleme

im not beginner with flash and root device
[OnePlus 8T Guides, News, & Discussion] AmericanRebel:
Notice that it says "no such file or directory", that's the problem. So either it's not seeing the boot.img or there's an issue with the stock recovery. BTW, I don't think it matters, but on my PC I have developer mode turned on.
[OnePlus 8T Guides, News, & Discussion] AmericanRebel:
Try flashing the stock recovery.img. That might fix the problem. Here's the stock recovery

[OnePlus 8T Guides, News, & Discussion] AmericanRebel:
Oh I see the problem now! You ran the cmd "fastboot flash boot boot.img" Run the cmd "fastboot flash boot.img". That should do the trick

The syntax is:

[OnePlus 8T Guides, News, & Discussion] AmericanRebel:
I told him how to fix it. I stumbled upon this flashing process myself. So I know how to do it. Not sure why you're replying to my comment
[OnePlus 8T Guides, News, & Discussion] BillGoss:
I replied because you had said 'Run the cmd "fastboot flash boot.img" ' which doesn't specify the partition to be flashed.
[OnePlus 8T Guides, News, & Discussion] amine tenes:

[OnePlus 8T Guides, News, & Discussion] Rootk1t:
Also flashing patched boot.img directly may (and probably will) result in issues with future updates and root.

fastboot boot <magisk-patched image> is preferrable.
[OnePlus 8T Guides, News, & Discussion] AmericanRebel:
I've had no problems whatsoever
[OnePlus 8T Guides, News, & Discussion] AmericanRebel:
UPDATE! I received a security patch update today. So I went ahead and patched the boot.img and installed it "adb reboot fastboot" then "fastboot flash boot (name of patched boot.img)". It's flashed perfectly and root is working fine.

can you elaborate a bit please. flash slot a or b or both slots with abl and where to flash recovery and patched boot, on what slots?
[OnePlus 8T Guides, News, & Discussion] ghost.ign:
abl img needs to be flashed in both slots, and for recovery and patched boot img you need to do it through bootloader mode (image for reference) doesnt need to flash in both slots. just use fastboot flash recovery and fastboot flash boot
[OnePlus 8T Guides, News, & Discussion] JedidroidX:
Thanks for the reply! But before reading your post I ended up in a boot loop and had to msm back to Android 11. After doing that I rooted and updated but would flash magisk in the OTA slot to keep root all the way to updating to 14.

[OnePlus 8T Guides, News, & Discussion] CaptainFedora:
Thank you sir! I tried "fastboot boot patched_magisk_image" but since i have fked up partitions, it didn't boot to the system, it just said flashing (booting) was OK and device didn't restart, it stayed on "fastboot mode" logo and nothing happened. So i flashed it and it worked flawlessly. Nice
[OnePlus 8T Guides, News, & Discussion] AmericanRebel:
UPDATE! You have to flash it to a specified slot. Otherwise "fastboot flash boot magisk.img" won't flash. Be sure to put "boot_a" or "boot_b" or both. I just discovered that today.

So what i did is... Extracted abl image from oos13.1 Eu through fastboot enhance and i flashed it in fastbootd by " fastboot flash abl_a abl.img & fastboot flash abl_b abl.img" tho it got flashed successfully. The bootloader started to work fine but i couldn't anymore boot into rom neither recovery worked. So i had to use msm tool. Could you tell me what iam missing or what iam doing wrong here. ( Currently on OnePlus 8t oos13.1 Eu ) Btw a new update oos14.0.0.601 Eu rolled out just recently.
[OnePlus 8T Guides, News, & Discussion] Rootk1t:
Try the latest version 14.0.0.601. Maybe fastboot is working good there without messing with flashing OOS13.1 bootloader.
[OnePlus 8T Guides, News, & Discussion] Rohail k:
Well I've tried the latest(14.0.0.601)eu and unfortunately the bootloader is still broken.

[Touch HD Accessories] cook15:
I am using a bluetooth enabled home cinema (Samsung HT-Z310). There are other solutions eg. from Sony. The only problem is that the HD "forgets" the profile settings for A2DP and you have to reactivate it every time (as mentioned in the XDA-Wiki on the HD).

But the big advantage is that you have complete control over your audio player since you can keep your HD with you just like you would do with a remote control.

[General Questions and Answers] CooLTool9:
I've linked a video that better demonstrates my situation and what the phone is actually doing but to put it simply here for those who dont want to watch it; The phone boots to a black screen after the initial htc splash no matter how much formatting, partitioning to ext4 or fat or switching roms I do, it just wont boot.

I have access to the storage of the phone on my laptop so I can put new files on it and run them, I have access to a functional custom recovery and I have functional fastboot however adb doesnt seem to work. My bootloader is unlocked but I dont have S-OFF or a custom radio or anything like that

All stock firmware archives for the evita are dead so I cant simply install the stock rom, especially since this is the telstra one which might not work with some rando generic evita firmware? I'm not too sure as htc phones are out of my comfort zone

Any help would be appreciated
[General Questions and Answers] blackhawk:
Have you replaced the battery?

It needs a substantially more power to boot up vs recovery mode.
[General Questions and Answers] CooLTool9:
Its battery is in good health and never had any trouble booting into the stock rom
[General Questions and Answers] blackhawk:
That can change in a minute. If it's older than 2 years it's questionable. If it's capacity is less than 80% of its original capacity it is degraded and more likely to fail.

I recently had an Li that had been hovering around 80% for months on my Note 10+, and was still getting 8-10 hours SOT. One day with about 60% charge on it, the phone went completely dead and unresponsive as I was using it. It was the battery. They can fail in various ways; it had no signs of swelling and was fast charging normally before that.

It's the usual suspect. If this is the case you'll be chasing your tail until its replaced. Start by eliminating the most likely suspect...
[General Questions and Answers] CooLTool9:
The thing is that it IS responsive, the fact that it can boot into fastboot and twrp and can sit in twrp for hours means the battery is not an issue, flashing Roms also puts strain on the CPU since it gets to around 65 degrees Celsius according to twrp so it has enough health to keep up with the CPU. The battery is not an issue man

To change the URL for the globe picture, go to the registry:
