[General Questions and Answers] Ugly_Chud:
Hello! I'm new to the forums and new to delving into phone stuffs. My brother recommended this site for questions and answers about phones and everything about them!. I am absolutely a noob with all the phone stuff but I do have a ton of pc tech/hardware background.

Phone:: Nokia C300 (I use tracfone for the carrier service)

Problem: I've had this phone for about a month now and it just seems slow to open up stuff and the battery life drains a lot faster than I think is normal. I've been reading around various website and looking up youtube vids and most say to get a android debloater.

So i'm currently using a pc program called Universal Android Debloater and have the "recommended" option selected, but I just have no idea which is safe to remove and not needed. I took a screenshot of them here below:

View attachment 6073409

Are those safe to uninstall? Any help or advice would highly be appreciated!! Thanks in advanced!
[General Questions and Answers] xXx yYy:
Universal Android Debloater (UAD) can be a potentially risky tool to use, as it involves modifying system files on your Android device. While it aims to improve performance and privacy by removing bloatware, there are inherent risks involved, and proper precautions are crucial. AFAIK UAD differentiates between "safe" and "unsafe" apps based on their perceived impact on system functionality. Hence if you only select the "safe" apps it shouldn't harm anything.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] HelpMeXiaomi:
Hello. I'm new to this part of developing (i'm more of a Database administrator XD) and I need your help.

You see, I have this Xiaomi Redmi 9 Pro with MIUI version 14.0.5 wich was from my sister. And yesterday, I putted some very important notes on the private folder by accident... To unlock them, I need to unlock a privacy password (wich is by pattern) and I dunno how it is (because the option of fingerprint it is out of the table because of a bug)... I'm trying to bypass it by using ADB tools that I installed on my PC (Windows 10) and using this code I found online:

adb shell

su

settings put secure privacy_password_is_open 0

settings put secure secure access_control_lock_enabled 0

Settings

reboot

But first, putting "su" doesn't do anything, and directly putting "settings put secure privacy_password_is_open 0" shows me this:

Exception occurred while executing 'put':

I unlocked the developer options on my phone, activated USB depuracy and even activated it for security settings, but it does nothing...

So could you guys lend me a hand, if it's not too much????? :(

Quick edit: Also the ADB tools were installed correctly. It detects the phone and such.

[Samsung Galaxy J3 (2016) Questions & Answers] DavideBaldini:
I tried flashing various versions of TWRP into this phone from linux with Heimdall, not Odin; the flashing appears to succeed (Heimdall reports "success") but after I reboot the phone into recovery mode I always get stuck with a message "recovery is not SEAndroid enforcing" and the phone hangs there. All versions of TWRP that I tried lead to this. The only way forward after the phone hangs there is to reboot the phone normally into Android, and this process, if I understand correctly, also wipes TWRP and replaces it with the stock recovery image.

The versions of TWRP that I tried are some among those listed in https://eu.dl.twrp.me/j3lte/ , which according to that page are meant for the SM-J320YZ, not this SM-J320FN, which are both variants of the Galaxy J3 (2016), however other people on XDA have managed to flash TWRP onto this SM-J320FN and I assume they used TWRP for the M-J320YZ, because I cannot find any version of TWRP built for other version of the Galaxy j3. Or do they exist?

I tried flashing TWRP with Heimdall version 1.4.2 and 2.0.2-2 provided by the Debian repository, and with this modified version which is linked from a page of the LineageOS wiki, here. All lead to the same outcome as above.
[Samsung Galaxy J3 (2016) Questions & Answers] DeblaGaming:
Hey Davide. Seems like the issue is with the TWRP recovery used. The one available from the official twrp.me website is for the Qualcomm verison of the J3 2016, not the Exynos version that you have.

Try the linked recovery made for your specific device model: https://xdaforums.com/t/recovery-tw...j3-2016-sm-j320fn-f-g-m-h-unofficial.4418933/

Furthermore you can try using a Windows VM/machine and Samsung ODIN. I personally have not used Heimdall so I can't tell you if it's also causing a issue. https://samsungodin.com/ (remember to get the USB drivers too!)

Hope this helps^^
[Samsung Galaxy J3 (2016) Questions & Answers] DavideBaldini:
Thanks DeblaGaming, it worked!

I downloaded the TWRP build that you linked above and I fleshed it from linux with Heimdall 1.4.2 from the Debian repository. I rebooted the phone in recovery mode and I still got the message "recovery is not SEAndroid enforcing" but this time a few seconds after prompting that message the phone progressed into the TWRP menu, which works fine.

I didn't expect that the different variants of the Galaxy J3 (2016) could differ so much from each other, with different CPUs and graphics processors. They are practically different phones under the same chassis and peripherals.

[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] ber999:
I recently flashed a custom ROM lineage-14.1-20181216-nightly-i9100-signed on my Galaxy S II I9100.

After nothing worked with this version on the smartphone, I performed a factory reset with TWRP and tried to flash the same version again.

After the reboot by TWRP, which was ticked off for the termination, I checked TWRP.

Immediately after I got to the TRWP window, TWRP suddenly crashed.

Now I have started the new installation with the result that the lineage bubble is stuck in the middle in one pass, and has been for an hour.

So I'm going to abort.

Did I do something wrong when repartitioning or should I look for another custom rom?

Thank you very much.

[Sony Xperia 1 III] Forbesii:
I've been working on getting unsupported carriers to work on the phone. I posted the how to guide one and half years ago about flashing mbn to get carrier support and people seem liking it. Since then, I've been working on flash the modem without rooting the phone. Here are some little progress:

It seems that android boot flow only check the signature of boot, system, vendor, and other essential partitions but not modem partition (idk please correct me if I'm wrong). This makes modifying modem partition possible without unlocking.

I used a 9008 edl cable to trigger my phone to enter edl mode. I had no idea how I can read or where I can get the partition table. I got stuck on this step untill I saw some software that can auto detect or auto retrieve those data from I don't know where (at least those tutorial videos make me feel like those softwares can do so) but unfortunately I cannot try it anymore.

I accidentally bricked my phone while flashing a custom ROM. I got an error message during flashing the ROM and the recovery somehow want me to reboot into the other slot and my phone never came back again. I didn't brick my phone through any operation related to 9008 mode although 9008 might cause bricking. However, my phone now is not even entering the bootloader/download mode so that Xperia Companion cannot detect my phone.

It is sad that I have to teminate my work that I put a lot of patience and efforts in and was benefit to the xperia comunity. If anyone live in Ontario, Canada and interested in this topic, I can send you my 9008 edl cable but do it on your own risk.

Also if any one knows or has experience with unbrick an xperia phone, please contact me.

[General Questions and Answers] CherifGAME:
So, since about 3 o'clock today, I've been trying to find a service that allows the translation of PDF files or other types of documents. I flew twice and spent money unnecessarily because of services that don't work. Others charged thousands of euros for my 1100 pages that I need to translate. Finally, I asked the chatGPT AI if it was possible to translate the file on the mobile version of Microsoft Word. The answer was that it could be done. So I paid for Microsoft Word. After opening I uploaded the file and made a copy so I could edit it. Well, there was nowhere to translate the text. I would do it on Google Translate, but it only supports a maximum of 300 pages and it must not be larger than 10mb. So I'm at a complete loss and I don't know what to do. I guess I'll have to cancel the subscription. But until then, I wanted to ask you if you know how to do it? I couldn't find any video anywhere on YouTube and that shocks me. Otherwise, I have a T-phone pro.
[General Questions and Answers] xXx yYy:
Don't Hesitate to Cancel Your Microsoft Word Subscription: If you determine that Microsoft Word won't suit your immediate needs, it's perfectly reasonable to cancel the subscription and seek alternative solutions better aligned with your task: Microsoft Word has features like language proofing and spellchecking, it doesn't have a built-in full-document translation feature, even on the desktop version.

LineageOS 21.0 for Sony Xperia XZ1 Compact

RELEASE

This is an alternative ROM for the Sony Xperia XZ1 Compact, offering several privacy features.

Please report any issues you observe apart from the ones listed below. Logs are needed for me to fix anything (preferably dmesg and logcat).

FEATURES

Signed with dev keys

Up-to-date kernel

WireGuard kernel support

DOWNLOAD

ROM and changelogs: https://sourceforge.net/projects/yoshino/files/lilac/lineage-21.0/

TWRP: https://sourceforge.net/projects/yoshino/files/lilac/twrp/

Suggested Gapps (MTG): https://github.com/MindTheGapps/14.0.0-arm64/releases/latest

INSTALLATION

Before first install: flash and boot into the TWRP provided in this thread,

format

data, reboot to recovery and wipe all internal partitions, then flash the ROM, GApps and root (if needed).

NOTES:

A dirty flash over lineage-20 (rom + new gapps) should work, but no guarantees. Make a backup in case anything goes wrong!

TWRP currently cannot decrypt A14 roms. As always in this case: You need to reflash gapps and/or Magisk again together with any new rom flash.

LineageOS now supports signature spoofing for microG out of the box.

KNOWN ISSUES

Stock camera from this magisk module works with limited functions: https://gitlab.com/xperiance/camera/-/releases

Is it OK if I dirty flash this ROM from your LineageOS 20.0?
[Sony Xperia XZ1 Compact ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries,] tonsofquestions:
Does the "touch to unlock anytime" fingerprint setting work for anyone in this ROM?

It's the one that lets you touch the fingerprint sensor without having to actively press it to unlock the phone.

I realize it's may not be specific to this ROM, since it doesn't work in any of the other Lineage ROMs I've tried, but since folks are checking features and fixing discrepancies, I figured I'd ask.

Otherwise, I'm not sure why it's an option.
[Sony Xperia XZ1 Compact ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries,] Arcline:
AFAIK it should give you the option to:

* unlock the phone directly by pressing the FP/power button, as it is on stock ROM;

* wake the phone to lock screen, and only after another touch of the FP/power button unlock the phone;

I haven't tried this ROM yet, but on Los20 it doesn't work as intended.

[Sony Xperia XZ1 Compact ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries,] Archibald De La Cruz:
Hello, for me the gps doesn't work, someone else with this issue ?
[Sony Xperia XZ1 Compact ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries,] tonsofquestions:
Given the description of "touch to unlock anytime" I would have expected it to behave as follows:

off - actively press the power button in order to wake + trigger the FP reader (unlock if a valid finger)

on - merely touch the power button in order to trigger the FP reader + unlock if a valid finger (stay screen off if invalid)

This would mirror the behavior of phones with a dedicated fingerprint reader (e.g. on the back - touch to wake/unlock) and more modern ones with an under-screen reader that do the same when asleep.

It also would explain why the behavior here is always the "off" case (as I described) rather than always "on" (as I think yours would be).

I had a much older rom that did it properly, and I'd love to have that ability again.
[Sony Xperia XZ1 Compact ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries,] No1Alien:
It is not available for our devices because fp sensor is off unless screen is on. That option is useless for us so please ignore it.
[Sony Xperia XZ1 Compact ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries,] tonsofquestions:
And there's no way to enable it while the screen is off?

I 100% know I had it working on an older ROM - I used this feature for years and I just verified with the older phone (still XZ1c) that I upgraded from/replaced.
