Hello, if you aren't sure then go ahead and use TWRP 3.6.2, just type in TWRP 3.6.2 Galaxy A71 download and use a vbmeta and you're done, tho that TWRP eventually will not show phones storage, idk why.

hello everybody!

i have made a german version of yevg001's 614c_WM6.1_20270_v1.4_rev1.1 image.

it's only tested with radio firmware 0.88 (M:MP-0088-200608) - don't know if it works with other versions.

german and english t9 are included.

flash the phone as usual with the sd-loader method - and as usual.... do it at your own risk :D

here are some pictures:

is it possible for you to do 1 in sweidsh also?
[Sable] captaintrip:
@azakiii

sorry i currently don't have the time for making an image in another language than german, just try it yourself!

after i have found some language bugs in my previous image i have made a new one. there are also some other changes:

- removed some trash (google search, hp photosmart, hp help, hp tips ...)

- updated googlemaps to the latest version (streetview)

- included manila 2d/touch flo + htc album + htc audio manager + htc comm manager + manilla 2d customizer

- included youtubeplay

- manila 2d internet tab fix

- hp ipaqdataconnect - made a DACH edition (germany/austria/switzerland) - removed all other countries/providers

...

the phone is now 99% german! :)

Good work. But I would prefer not to delete the Data Settings for the other countries. Sometime I am on travel.:)
[Sable] Space2Man:
Hello,

this version is working fine on my Ipaq 614c. Is the current version with Manila 2d based on the rev1.2 or still on rev1.1?

And one minor note: when shutting the Ipaq down there is some cyrillic text below the german one :)

Thanks and best regards,

Anybody else having more power drain than before?

Hello captaintrip,

thanks for your work - tryied you last version it works well but the power drain is mutch more than before. I saw that some autorun progies like HPconfig ist not active anymore - could this be a matter for the power?

Also I would prefer to keep the Ipaq data settings for the other countries in case of travelling.

But nevertheless - thanks for you good work:)

Best regards

[Sable] captaintrip:
@masterblaster

i will readd the files if there's time for a new version - but i thought they are useless (at least for me, because i travel not that much)

@space2man

it bases on 614c_WM6.1_20270_v1.4_rev1.1 (without manila, i added manila myself), when i started building the image there was no rev 1.2 out - if somebody has some spare time it would be nice to compare rev1.1 to rev1.2 and list the differences

i know about the shutdown message but i have no clue from where it comes, i have changed nearly all language files and registry entries to german (in the sys part i currently only remember the remote terminal service client where i haven't found the german files)

if anybody knows a solution please share it!

@kato

bad to hear that power consumption has increased. i haven't used the phone for 4 days now and i have 29% percent without loading since that time. (nearly no calls and no data activated)

what do you exactly mean by hpconfig?

i have removed google search, hp help and support, hp customization engine, hp cert enroller, hp internet bookmarks and defaultpage, hp ipaq tips, hp photosmart mobile, hp ringtones and hp shortcut - i don't see a relationship between that components and the power consumption??

thanks to all for the feedback

Hey. I barely know anything at all about rooting phones, I've never done it before and I'm just so confused. I have a TCL Stylus 5G with Android version 12, CPU is MediaTek Dimensity 700 and the model is T779W. I want to try to root it but there are so many terms out there like "boot image" or "flashing" and "custom ROM or TWRP or custom recovery". can you guys please give me a bit of guidance? Also, I would preferably like to do this without a PC, but if that's not possible then I can use a method that uses a pc.

[ASUS ZenFone 8] Lithaos:
Hey! Howdy? I hope you guys are doing good.

I have ZenPhone 8 that most likely bricked. Some context:

I have (or had?) LineageOS installed, version 20 with Android 14, I wanted to get back to OEM Android ROM. I've downloaded the latest available ROM from official Asus website. Then, I tried to install it using adb sideload, however, it failed with an error describing attempt of downgrading.

So, I tried to workaround the problem by extracting boot.img and vendor_boot.img from the aforementioned ROM using the payload_dumper but, once I flashed boot.img I think it bricked as I couldn't flash vendor_boot due to the missing partition error.

so I followed up to understand what's going on and realised that the bootloader has been blocked

Here is the outcome from: fastboot getvar all, oh and for the record - adb is not working, phone is not being discovered.

Thoughts on the next steps?
[Samsung Galaxy A20 Questions & Answers] filipe_m:
I had root my galaxy A20e with TWRP successfully and install a costum rom,

But i had to reinstall original Samsung rom because with costum rom touchscreen did not work.

After that every time i flash TWRP again i get an "Error validating footer".

I read i need flash VBMETA file with Twrp file but VBMTA file from original rom it´s not a tar file, so i can´t flash it with Odin.

How can i fix it?
[Samsung Galaxy A20 Questions & Answers] pcuserpro:
*This basically flashes the full image with VBMETA first, then flashes the recovery in one go. It needs to images to be flashed (there's an option in Odin to don't restart after flashing one image, and also you will launch Odin two times to bypass it showing "COMPLETED" and won't doing it again, just in case.)

This may not be the best solution, but it will work. However, your OS will be completely reinstalled. What you're going to do is reflash the OS and afterwards flash the TWRP embedded in the image. If you're not aware on how to do this, this guide will be more detailed. First of all, download or make sure you have the original firmware file starting with AP. This will be needed later after second image is prepared.

Then it is needed to prepare another image with TWRP instead of recovery in it. Download that file https://github.com/lz4/lz4/releases/download/v1.9.4/lz4_win64_v1_9_4.zip . Unzip it and unzip the AP (if any software doesn't recognize the .md5 at the end, just delete that, so the end will be .tar), both to the same folder. Make sure the TWRP is in the img format, not tar. If not, extract it or download the img from website so only img is left. Then delete the recovery.img from the folder. On Windows, drag twrp img file onto the lz4.exe. This will make a .lz4 file with the name of the img file. If it doesn't show up, press F5 or Right click>refresh. Rename it to recovery.lz4 . Delete the lz4 file (or don't archive it). Use some software like 7zip and make tar archive out of everything in that folder that originally was from AP, just with replaced recovery.

We have two images. Later I will call them "Original" and "Patched"

Boot phone to bootloader / Download mode. Launch two instances of Odin or other words - launch odin two times. so you have two windows. First we're gonna work with one window - select ORIGINAL IMAGE. Wait until it loads - the Window isn't crashed anymore. BUT DON'T FLASH YET . Go to "Options" tab on the left. another window might have auto-reboot enabled, but it needs to be like that, now use the one WITH AUTO REBOOT DISABLED.. Select just one window now, the one with original loaded. Flash the original, wait until it's done. Close that window. Open another Window prepared before that has auto reboot. Load the patched tar, flash it.

Restart phone, now OS will have setup and TWRP should be flashed.

I hope it worked, if not, reply to this.
[Samsung Galaxy A20 Questions & Answers] filipe_m:
Thanks for your reply.

I will follow your instructions and give a feed back later!
[Samsung Galaxy A20 Questions & Answers] filipe_m:
I prepared both images but I have some doubts regarding the flash.

Confirm, please, if I understood correctly:

- I will open 2 Odin windows,

- In one auto-reboot enabled, in another auto-reboot disabled,

- I load the original image in auto-reboot disabled,

- Flash the original image. Close window

- I load the Patched image in the auto-reboot enabled window. Flash

- Reboot

or is there way to boot in recovery or flash some Rom etc on this locked phone to remove the PIN??

[Samsung Galaxy S24] admuffin:
I've recently purchased an S24 after reading all the positive reviews on youtube, especially about the significant improvements made in battery life. However, after using the phone for 5 days I was disappointed. After a full day of medium use I was down to around 20%. I had bluetooth on a lot, browsed and watched some videos but no heavy use like gaming.

I found the battery performance only about 20 - 30% better than my 2 year old S22!! Both phones are Exynos as I'm in Europe but I heard that Exynos has improved significantly recently.

I debloated the phone as much as much as I thought was safe by uninstalling samsung apps, disabling bixby, ant, dex, AR garbage etc.

I expected better from a brand new phone after spending £650. I had to return the phone, but I'm tempted to try one more time. Could this be that this particular unit was defective? It's hard to believe that there would be much variation between units given how high-tech the flagship manufacturing process must be.
[Samsung Galaxy S24] blackhawk:
Add Rethink and look what apps are sucking up the data. Google play Services, Playstore and Framework are normally disabled on my N10+.

You can probably tone it down more with Rethink.

I've seen all kinds of SOT claims for the S24U. By my calcutions with a 5000 mAh battery it should get at least 13 hours SOT when optimized. Samsung has dived head first into more AI junk, I'm not a fan and it eats battery.

This is what my stock N10+ Snapdragon (Q) is getting and for most tasks it's slightly slower in milliseconds not seconds. This is with a battery rated at about 3900 mAh, with what should be a less efficient SOC and less efficient ram. No 5G or variable refresh rate display (better color calibration though) so that saves battery.

This is one big reason I still run the Beast. Even the cams have held up well to time.

View attachment 6092569

I've toned down my already optimized stock configuration. Increased battery life by over 10% from what I was getting before Rethink.

I don't or rarely need a lot of this junk in my day to day operation. Might make some check lists on ColorNote to keep the steps needed to reactivate what's disable... like landing a plane🤣

I'm doing the same with Samsung software which is also full of pervasive needless junk.

Just need to be careful not to impinge on wanted features and services, so it takes time.

Coming from a iPhone 13 Pro to a S24 the first thing i noticed was the battery drain is insane compared to my 13 Pro with 88% degradation, I'm hardly using it at work and by the time i get home I'm at or below 50%.

Sorry for my English, but I speak here from Brazil
[Samsung Galaxy S24] blackhawk:
That's a lot of steps. Better if you learn and thereby understand yourself.

Start by getting a adb or ladb editing app.

Take out of the bloatware like fb, Netflix, carrier apps, etc you never use.

Install no social media or sales apps on the phone, uninstall or disable any that are on it.

Don't use adaptive battery or any of Device Care's global power management.

Install Battery Guru and Rethink firewall, learn how to use the latter especially.

Start there. Generally the many small Samsung system apks are best left alone; target the power hogs you don't need or use. If you can modify an apps behavior in settings (temporarily disabling them, disabling background battery or data use, etc) and it gets the job done, that's fine. Google play Services and Framework can be temporarily disabled.

It's a long series of steps, trial and error... whatever works best for you. Read other related threads on XDA too. Cloud apps are notorious for eating battery. Poor screen off battery life is likely because of them. You should use >.5%@hr when not using the phone with tap on to see AOD and phone/internet on.

Monitor battery drain real time. This is what my N10+ is getting right now.

[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV Themes and Apps] zizou417:
Alright, so this might be a big long shot, but does anybody have an M8 first of all that they could rip and try to port? It runs on WinMo, but has been cloned to be nearly identical to the iPhone. The only thing that would be really difficult is the resolution on the M8 being scaled down to the Diamond. Any ideas?
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV Themes and Apps] xECK29x:
Should just be an overlay app similar to Manilla. Once the phone is actually released (still vaporware in my opinion) we can break it down from there.
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV Themes and Apps] ND4SPD:
Not to kill your hopes, but the M8 runs CE instead of WinMo. Windows Mobile is a smaller subset of CE. Some apps should run on both platforms, but I don't think that you can take that UI. I'm also pretty sure that the M8 has a capacitive touch screen instead of resistive.

Hopefully it can still be done!

They showed me the dual touch feature and I was pretty surprised. I hadn't heard of this device before today honestly. The interface looked really smooth and intuitive. I think I want one. It's priced a few hundred less than the best price I can get on a diamond (I already have a diamond)
