can i use the european version instead of india ?
[Realme GT 2 Pro] jerryaus:
hi, can you pls help me with rollback?

currently at UI5, RMX3301, Manifest 1a:97 meaning TW version?
[Realme GT 2 Pro] Stano36:
According to the new method, change to C.16_IN

RMX3301_C.21_TW_Fake_Rollback.zip

RMX3301_ROLL_BACK_Android13_IN.zip

This process will remove all data from your device.

Then use the old method and install C.16_TW via OPLocalupdate_for_android13.apk

RMX3301_11_C.16_TW
[Realme GT 2 Pro] jerryaus:
cheers, you are legend
[Realme GT 2 Pro] dimedevil:
Wow thanks... Gonna try this for my friend's GT2 Pro
[Realme GT 2 Pro] Stano36:
If it has the TW version it will work. If you don't know which version of *#6776# Manifest:Image
[Realme GT 2 Pro] dadme:
Hi Stano, can you pls help me with rollback?

Currently i have UI5/A14 june security patch , RMX3301, Manifest 44:44 Eu version.
[Realme GT 2 Pro] Stano36:
Hi, The European version has a Rollback package that brings you back to Android 12. Of course, all data will be removed from the device, don't forget to back it up.

RMX3301_ROLL_BACK_Android12_EU.zip

Then you can manually update to the version that suits you.

Yeah I think the best we get is Best buy because I think they are the only brick and morter in us that carry our phones
[Google Pixel 7] theballo:
Currently I have to use Better Open With to fix a horrible situation with this Android 14 install (I didn't know the previous user of this phone signed up for this **** show and couldn't figure out how to downgrade). Basically I can't associate apps to files OR services. So, for example, I have to use Google's horrid unusable file and image picker instead of a sane one like File Manager.

What is going on and can I fix it, somehow?
[Google Pixel 7] simplepinoi177:
when you received (bought?) this from "the previous user", you didn't factory wipe when you got it? Why? Did you wish to keep the set up of this "previous user"?

In any case, if you had factory wiped and there are still some remnants, I have a feeling the device has a QPR beta installed (that's why you can't downgrade). If you get off the beta -- via flashing a Full Factory firmware image (which would also count as downgrading); there might be a more proper method to get off of beta, but since I've never flashed a QPR beta, i wouldn't know -- I imagine this stuff will go back to stock, then you can set it up to your preference.

I'm also curious why you haven't changed things in the "Default apps" section in the "opening links" and clearing the "default preferences" on the "verified links" under Files by Google or whatever else....
[Google Pixel 7] theballo:
You seem to be implying the OS reverts to the older one when the phone is wiped. It does not. If the previous user signed onto the intense self-flagellation process that is Android 14, that firmware remains when you wipe the phone.

All the things you think I can do, I cannot. The default apps cannot be reset, hence the forum post. If you don't know how to solve this issue one wonders why you replied.
[Google Pixel 7] TheMystic:
One has to ask questions to better understand the problem, BEFORE suggesting a solution (if one exists). It is often trial and error too. But you have to be polite when someone is trying to help, even if you weren't helped, i.e. you have to appreciate the intent of the person who replied.
[Google Pixel 7] simplepinoi177:
With your limited description, one can take this statement as "[YOU] couldn't figure out how to downgrade". Which is why I asked why didn't you factory wipe -- not under the belief that the OS would revert to an older one, but because such settings wouldn't persist if you had done it -- which is the usual thing any user would do if receiving a phone that was set up by someone else.

You are the one jumping to conclusions that this is an Android 14 issue and/or under the presumption that downgrading would resolve it.

I doubt I implied such a thing. Based on the (again, limited) description of your problem,

you

"implied" that all one (the previous owner) would have to do is "downgrade" from what you believe is an Android 14 issue -- meaning it's a set-up setting issue. Which would be resolved and addressed by simply wiping the phone. That's why I brought it up and suggested it -- not to revert it, but to clear what glitch/setting causing the issue.

How and why would I know "all the things [ I ] think [you] can do, [you] cannot"? Again, with your limited description, you never stated you did or didn't try this! And because you never mention it, how could anyone know that this "hence the forum post"?! And I've never heard of anyone not being able to modify the default apps settings -- this is not an Android 14 thing. It might be a QPR beta thing, which is why I suggested getting off of it, if you find your device on it. Yet you make no mention of you even considering/entertaining the idea nor eliminating the possibility.

Truly, one wonders why I would reply if I had known you would be so ungrateful, dismissive, and rude! Just because you did not get the answer you were looking for or what worked (with your lack of complete description would put most blame on you), does not call for such dismissiveness & rudeness. All I was trying to do was help "solve this issue" -- you don't have to "wonders why [ I ] replied". And most of the time, the way one gets to a solution is through much collaboration and trial-and-error. Just because you didn't get spoonfed the exact perfect solution without any discussion, figuring things out, or experimentation causing your own frustration and impatience to show does not justify your attitude.

So "one wonders" how many members will be willing to even try or attempt to help/assist you if you are this ungrateful & rude to someone/anyone just trying to help....! "One wonders" how much of a chance now after you've shown your true colors if you'll even get an answer here and how much you've ruined that for yourself.

You should really re-evaluate how you conduct yourself; especially if you are in the position of asking for help....
[Google Pixel 4a Questions & Answers] tom_334:
Hello everyone

I did't know about this before and bought two Google Pixel 4a, the first with a broken screen and the second with another hardware issue (but screen ok) from ebay and took the screen from the second for replacing the broken screen of the first one.

I was very happy when this worked and the phone booted but I soon noticed that the phone has not been reset because there was a non standard lockscreen. So I tried to reset it via fastboot. Until then i've never heard anything about FRP. After the reset I got a prompt asking me again for the previous PIN, googled a lot and learned about the FRP subject,

Then I was forced to ask the ebay seller for the PIN, which he said he didn't have either (he said he got it from ebay too, but maybe he just didn't want to provide the PIN out of fear I would steal his data). I then asked if he could get the PIN from the original owner, but after that came no response, so I can also not rule out the possibility that the phone may have been stolen.

Nevertheless I spent quite some time to find ways to get rid of this FRP, unfortunately so far without success. It seems to be possible with many brands but google phones it's apparently especially tricky or even impossible.

After multiple unsuccessful attempts I then contacted google pixel device support, they asked me for a bill to prove that I bought the device from ebay. So I was hopeful that they could do something about it but it turned out not to be the case.

I then tried to return the device with the locked motherboard, but the seller refused to accept.

So now I'm stuck with a device that is technically ok but I cannot use it. Frankly I think this type of "theft protection" goes a little too far because in reality it leads to unnecessary electronic waste (so google can sell more new phones?). How would anyone with a dead screen whipe his account from a phone if you want to sell it? (non technical people) And also how many of these people would afterwards give out the PIN to someone who bought the phone and they don't even know?

If anyone has had the same issue and/or knows a solution or could share his thoughts on it I would highly appreciate it.
[Google Pixel 4a Questions & Answers] tom_334:
Some important info:

What google pixel device support asked me to do first is to reset my phone using this link.

Google Pixel - Update and Software Repair

I would highly not recommend doing this because from what I learned this will likely also update the firmware (android) and therefore many of the options to bypass FRP might no longer work. Use the reset / wipe method provided by rescue mode instead (if possible).

I don't know if it's even possible to switch to an unpatched or earlier android version after that when FRP is active. So far I wasn't able to flash any firmware except with this factory reset method above. If someone knows if / how it's still possible I'm also thankful for tips how it can be done.

Edit:

Turns out android was probably not updated or patched after this because I still had android 12 installed, but it's probably still safer to use the built in method via rescue mode for the factory reset.
[Google Pixel 4a Questions & Answers] tom_334:
There's one FRP bypass method that seems quite easy but requires calling 911 (not kidding):

... i'm not shure if this is a joke but I haven't tried it yet (too risky...).

There's also a method with a direct connection cable (usb-c / usb-c) to another android device:

I don't have 2 devices with type c connection (one of them has micro usb) so I would probably need an adapter cable so I haven't tried this as well.

Both methods look too a little too simple to me and I'm not shure if they are fake but based on the comments on youtube they might work.
[Google Pixel 4a Questions & Answers] tom_334:
I haven't found any trustworthy FRP bypass tool yet that claims to work for google pixel devices. They exist for samsung and other eastern brands but from what I understand, they probably just send fastboot commands, so they're probably not worth paying for if you can figure out the commands.
[Google Pixel 4a Questions & Answers] tom_334:
Ok, so after some research I discovered how to find out the current android version, because it is required in order to find out which ones of the unlock methods will work.

You have to boot into fastboot mode, then enter recovery and after that open the menu by holding power button and pressing volume up button once.

After that you should see the information in this format:

google/sunfish/sunfish

12/SP1A.210812.015/7679548

The first digit is the android number.

After I had this number I checked out the method from this video

... and it just WORKED!

So no suspicious proprietary tools required to overcome FRP lock for this device (at least for Android 12)!

Amazing how poorly FRP must be implemented when it's possible to bypass it so easily...

[Google Pixel 4a Questions & Answers] tom_334:

[Google Pixel 4a Questions & Answers] batu2094:
No. How do I check it? I stopped using androids in 2017. Things changed a lot. I didn’t even know this lock thing was a thing. I couldn’t find a way to bypass it.
[Google Pixel 4a Questions & Answers] tom_334:
I described it in the previous post, you have to go into recovery mode and open the menu.
[Google Pixel 4a Questions & Answers] batu2094:
I'm attaching a picture.
[Google Pixel 4a Questions & Answers] tom_334:
You have to search for methods specifically for your android version (and device).

That's fastboot mode. Now you have to select recovery mode with the volume keys and confirm with the power button. To open the recovery menu afterwards hold the power button and press volume down once.
[Google Pixel 4a Questions & Answers] batu2094:
What do I do afterwards? I'm kinda lost
[Google Pixel 4a Questions & Answers] tom_334:
Hold power button and press volume up once. That should open a menu, there you will have the android version shown as a number, in my case it looked like this (12 is the Android version):

google/sunfish/sunfish

12/SP1A.210812.015/7679548
[Google Pixel 4a Questions & Answers] batu2094:
I don't get there. Nothing happens on this menu. Either launches back to pin lock screen.

Edit: Volume up worked.

google/flame/flame

13/TP1A.221005.002.B2/9382335
[Google Pixel 4a Questions & Answers] tom_334:
Sorry, I was wrong, it's power button plus volume up button (I corrected it in the previous posts).

You can see it in this video:
[Google Pixel 4a Questions & Answers] batu2094:
google/flame/flame

13/TP1A.221005.002.B2/9382335

I edited the previous post, but you didn't see I guess.
[Google Pixel 4a Questions & Answers] tom_334:
Ok, then you need to look for an FRP bypass method for this version. There are lots of youtube videos for this topic but not all methods seem to be working.

As your device name is "flame" you seem to have a Pixel 4 and not a Pixel 4a (should be sunfish).
[Google Pixel 4a Questions & Answers] batu2094:
I couldn't find anything useful. I tried the mirrored L gesture thing and calling emergency services to access google maps, then access youtube. There's no way to access the youtube app.

Can't I somehow flash another OS into this? A custom one perhaps.
[Google Pixel 4a Questions & Answers] tom_334:
Not to my knowledge because that's what the FRP lock was designed for, Google doesn't wan't you to install or reset anything on a locked phone. As long as this lock is in place the phone won't be usable.
[Google Pixel 4a Questions & Answers] batu2094:
It's a deceased person’s phone. Trying to contact Google is also a pain in the a. IDK what to do
[Google Pixel 4a Questions & Answers] tom_334:
Does this method work maybe?
[Google Pixel 4a Questions & Answers] batu2094:
There's no share button.
[Google Pixel 4a Questions & Answers] tom_334:
This is another one I would try (but needs a cable and 2nd android device):

If none of the methods work your only hope is that somebody will come up with a working solution again in the future. Apparently google can't remove this lock either (at least thats what I've been told by the support).

I actually believe the only plausible reason google is doing this is so they can sell more devices.

Or maybe you can somehow get access to the person's google Account? That would be another way to unlock the phone.
[Google Pixel 4a Questions & Answers] batu2094:
I connected my iphone and it instantly asked for the pin
[Google Pixel 4a Questions & Answers] tom_334:
Then I would look specifically for methods that work with Google Pixel 4 (not 4a) and Android 13.

Here's one for instance (perhaps first check if you have the XL Version):

I'm not shure if i'll ever buy a used Google phone again. For Samsung and other eastern brands there seem to be standard methods to bypass FRP. Mine is working fine now, but if i had known about this FRP Lock before I would have probably chosen a Samsung.
[General Questions and Answers] TheMystic:
I want to sideload an apk in my Downloads folder using adb (package installer refuses to install it).

Q1. Is it possible to do it using an Android device (preferably same device) via Wireless Debugging?

Q2. What will be the command for an apk saved in the Downloads folder?

Q3. Any recommended apps for keeping this simple?

Thanks.
[General Questions and Answers] TheMystic:
SOLUTION

Thanks to @tytydraco (the developer of LADB app) and @sosimple

Use the LADB app.

First pair the app with your device from the Wireless Debugging setting under Developer Option, and then start the connection.

Guide 1

Guide 2

I wanted to install an apk (with filename md) saved in my Download folder. The built-in package installer was refusing to install it on Android 14 as the app was targeting SDK 21, while Android 14 requires minimum target SDK 23.

So here is the command I passed:

adb install --bypass-low-target-sdk-block /storage/emulated/0/Download/md.apk

If the app you want to install does not have the target SDK problem, then your command would look like this:

adb install /storage/emulated/0/Download/md.apk

(Replace md with the filename of your app and Download with the name of the folder/ location containing the app).
[General Questions and Answers] TheMystic:
I have to mention that while LADB installed the app successfully, I got an error with Bugjaeger app (not sure how the two apps differ in executing the same command).
[General Questions and Answers] sosimple:
You can also try mt manager (Google it ,not in playstore). My app was 64bit but wont install normally. It said is incompatible . It installed with mt manager. I have Ladb and shizuku installed, i don't know if they helped..
[General Questions and Answers] TheMystic:
If I remember correctly, that app hasn't been updated for a very long time. And the ones available on the internet are flagged by VirusTotal.

If you have a clean version, please attach it in your comment.
[General Questions and Answers] sosimple:
I didn't know about virus. I haven't downloaded from this link (i can't post where i downloaded) but this looks safe to me. Test it before installing though..

Edit i deleted the link as it shows virus..
[General Questions and Answers] sosimple:
Thanks.. I deleted the link. I'll try my apk
[General Questions and Answers] TheMystic:
Why can't you attach the APK you have? Have you tested that on VirusTotal?
[General Questions and Answers] sosimple:
Just tested. Same message as yours. I downloaded from a forum which i can't post link.

I still will use it but, i freeze it afte using it..

The reported viruses aren't very important i believe but i can't be sure. Most of them just show that something changed in the code, and some services are blocked.

I think there is a 3rd solution but doesn't remember it now and haven't use it. If i do I'll post it here.

Edit. I searched and found the developer download link (which shizuku has link to) which is here:

下载 | MT管理器

MT管理器官网

mt2.cn

But I tested and VirusTotal gives same viruses so use at your own risk. I think shizuku is needed for installing an incompatible app with this method. Mt manager is not enough.
