Troubleshooting​

Serial issues

In my experience, thebes / memphis are quite finicky when it comes to staying in Preloader mode. Should you run into serial-related issues, the most common errors I've seen so far include communication timeouts and failed handshakes when attempting the second route:

could not open port /dev/ttyACM0: No such file or directory: '/dev/ttyACM0'
device reports readiness to read but returned no data
Input/Output Error

If you experience these, make sure to be patient, as it has sometimes taken me up to 30 attempts to get the script to work. Also try to use USB 2.0 ports instead of USB 3.0 ports, as serial communication tends to be more stable with the former.

Finally, to make the process easier, run the bootrom script in a continuous loop so that it automatically retries whenever it fails. You can use something like until sudo ./bootrom-step.sh; [ $? -ne 1 ]; do :; done.

If none of these helps you, try to handshake the device with the script from this unbrick thread and then proceed with sudo ./bootrom-step.sh -s --port /dev/ttyACM0. This will skip the handshake and will pick up the device directly from the specified port. Note that if you're using MacOS the port might be different.

Facing bootlops

​

If you have lost TWRP access and the currently installed ROM no longer boots, you can attempt to force the device into hacked fastboot mode. To do this, force a shutdown, connect the device to your PC, and hold the power button for 5 seconds as soon as you see the Amazon logo.

Once the device boots into hacked fastboot mode, you can execute sudo ./fastboot-step.sh to restore TWRP. If this does not work whatsoever, you might need to resort to the unbrick method detailed in the first post (OP).

GPT issues

If you encounter GPT issues during the unlock process, such as messages asking what's wrong with your GPT?, you can attempt to fix your GPT by running the appropriate gpt-fix script. There are two different scripts: one for 8GB variants and another for 16GB variants. Select and run the correct script for your model, either gpt-fix-16G.sh or gpt-fix-8G.sh.​

It works really nice overall. Will you be able to include WebView in future builds?
[Fire HD 8 and HD 10 Original Android Development] Rortiz2:
Yes, but I’d need one tester at least. Are you willing to test upcoming builds? I also plan to build LineageOS 14.1 (based on Android 7).
[Fire HD 8 and HD 10 Original Android Development] nv-:
Sure, I would be happy to test them - but please bear in mind that most probably they will be just a basic tests. I'm not using this device extensively.
[Fire HD 8 and HD 10 Original Android Development] Rortiz2:
Yeah, that's fine. Do you have Telegram or Discord? I think it'll be easier to talk there.

Any luck or experience with PixelOS?

PixelOS - oscar

PixelOS is an AOSP based ROM, with Google apps included and all Pixel goodies. We aim to provide an experience similar to Google Pixel phones with numerous performance enhancements and a small amount of useful additional features.

I also contacted developer, will share anything that might surface.

[Google Pixel 5a] goodjuju:
Is there a way to manually download and update after August 2024? My phone is still stock.
[Google Pixel 5a] blackhawk:
No big deal. Anything from Android 9 and higher are fairly secure unless you do stupid things.

My 2 stock N10+'s are running on Android 9 (last update 11/2019) and 10 (factory load).

The one running 9 last factory was over 4 years ago, the one running on 10 was over 2 years ago. No malware in all that time on these heavily used devices. They're both stable, fast running machines that get great SOT.
[Google Pixel 5a] mepherion:
Best thing to do is swap to something like Lineage OS where they will keep updating it for longer

Someday apps will up their minimum requirements and newer versions of the apps eventually won't run on older Android versions
[Google Pixel 5a] blackhawk:
Yet to see that even with Android 9.

Screw Playstore, plenty of other sites to get the older apps. Quality apps like Poweramp have multiple version on their site.

Plus you should already be keeping installable copies of all apps, part of backup.

Make reloads much faster.

[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] RandomGuy-8:
I am building twrp for LYF Flame 7s. It never had any device tree before, no Kernel source or anything. So I tried to build my own Device tree using other references.

Thought the build was half success, I was able to generate recovery.img but I am getting this error:

/home/harishkumar/Build_Android_5/TWRP-omni/out/target/product/LS_4008/recovery.img maxsize=15949824 blocksize=135168 total=17008656 reserve=270336
error: /home/harishkumar/Build_Android_5/TWRP-omni/out/target/product/LS_4008/recovery.img too large (17008656 > [16220160 - 270336])

make: *** Deleting file '/home/harishkumar/Build_Android_5/TWRP-omni/out/target/product/LS_4008/recovery.img'

As you can see the expected size of recovery.img excedes the device partition size. I tried everything I could To decrease the size of final image but I am not able to get it under the required size.

What I tried so far:

Here is my BoardConfig.mk variables that are ment to decrease result image size:

[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] RandomGuy-8:
No replies to my orignal question makes me scared that there won't be anything that I can do to reduce the size of final TWRP image. Please atleast there must be something that can reduce the size of TWRP image. Atleast a variable or a compiler flag.... anything?

I know this question has been asked before and I tried everything that I found in those forms as mentioned above, but it still didn't helped. So there must be another way around?

Can I create a custom script inside Device Tree that unpack my ziped kernel into /system/ and loads it from there. Or some other way around?

help me dude.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] xXx yYy:
The kernel included in TWRP can be a significant portion of the image size. You can choose to compile a smaller kernel by removing unnecessary drivers, features, or functionalities not required for your specific device.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] RandomGuy-8:
Well I thought of that... but what kept me from doing it is the fact that there is no kernel source available for this device online. And I have never done it before.

Is there another way around like compressing the kernel image?
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] xXx yYy:
Yes, TRWP's kernel is dependent on the device it's flashed on. Why not ask TWRP's developer for suitable kernel-source?

[Motorola Moto G32] vwdt:
Hi, so i was trying to change some fonts with the app zFont 3, and after installing it in Magisk i rebooted, but it seems i changed some system fonts and now it wont boot. Its a 4gb ram and i rooted it back in April (9th, to be exact) so i dont know if installing the new rom from Motorola will work. I never installed a custom rom or anything, only thing i touched was the system and well, now i cant use it. Any fix? I saw that maybe installing the same rom back again will work, does anyone have the rom so i can try it? If i can find a fix ill post it so no one does the same dumb thing i did. :P

Hello!

I wanted to know how to install a different OS on my old Kidizoom watch. I found some weirdly encoded files inside of it in VTE_DATA > LL > APPS. I added a zip in case you want to look at them.

Thanks!
[Android Head-Units] NandieeHU:
Hi everyone,

I have this head unit which occasionally malfunctions. I've disassembled it multiple times but found nothing wrong. The support suggested a firmware update, etc., but I've tried a bunch of different firmware versions, and the issue always comes back after a while. Sometimes it happens daily, other times it works fine for a few months.

The problem is that it doesn't respond to touch. During these times, the volume up and down buttons don't work either. Only the steering wheel controls work. If I press the physical RST button, it reinstalls the system. Do you have any suggestions on what I should do? Is it possible to use Tasker to reboot the device if a certain element isn't touched for a specified amount of time?
[Samsung Galaxy A23] iagossilva:

[Google Pixel 6] meerak000:
Hello all,

I had a Pixel 6 with a water-damaged screen. I went and got the screen replaced by a non-official vendor (my country doesn't have an official one). When I got the screen back, it felt a lot worse, laggier, and even a bit zoomed out. I checked CPU ID, and everything looked fine. I enabled developer options, and it was 90Hz, dipping down to 60Hz sometimes. I know it sounds normal, but I'm 100 percent sure this isn't the official screen. Everything about it is worse, it's laggier, and it looks zoomed out.

Any idea how to verify the authenticity of the screen without taking it apart? Any info would be helpful.

Thanks in advance.
[Google Pixel 6] Jaitsu:
Everything here *looks* correct, but it's hard to say, if it's a good fake. The 60/90Hz switch is normal, iirc, it switches to 90 to make animations smoother but drops back to 60 to save battery.

A lot of the fake replacement screens I've come across are LCD instead of OLED like the Pixel's - when you're on a black, or mostly black screen (like the boot logo, the background of Always-On Display, or some apps, but you have to be certain it's 100% black), in a dark room, do you see ANY light bleeding through the black parts of the screen?
[Google Pixel 6] meerak000:
its definitely OLED from what i can tell. any other way to check?
[Google Pixel 6] Jaitsu:
Don't really know beyond that, sorry. Others might still have ideas, but I don't personally know if there's an easy way to get the screen's serial/model number or anything.

I have a rooted Google Pixel 4 XL Android device.

I want to write a file to the directory /data/domaconf/ name as config.

I can copy the content; however, when I run adb shell stop and adb shell start, the config file gets deleted, causing the device to disconnect from the PC, and I have to reboot manually.

I'm not sure why the file is being deleted. If I simply rename the old file from config to config2 and then rename config2 back to config, there are no issues. The problem only occurs when I change the content of the config file.
[XPERIA X1 General] Carreragt17:
If you search google or the xda forum for the pandora.cab, it installs a working version on the x1.

Caveat: The screen resolution and program do not mesh well, and the touch screen buttons are misaligned a few mm to the left. It takes awhile to map out where the buttons really are, bur in my opinion a working version of pandora is as good as gold. Also, the VGA fix does not rectify the problem. Anyone have any luck installing a "proper" version of pandora?

[Samsung Galaxy A34] htchd2sucks:
Hello,

I have received the A34 5G brand new this morning from the shop. Everything normal, seals intacts, etc...

It was charged at 50% (which is normal I think).

It started charging (with an official Samsung 25W charger) but it stopped around 70%.

Then it no longer charges and discharges slowly. It still displays as if it's charging.

Note that I am a computer engineer and that I spent the day trying Samsung false "solutions", in the end I even did a "factory reset" (return to factory settings).

Also it has been updated to the latest official Samsung versions, as indicated by their support. So it has OneUI 6.1. It kind of stopped working after that, I noticed.

Also the device indicates that the charger is connected whether in off or on mode (the active charging indicator turns but the device does not charge). For example if the device is off, I can still see the green circle turning, indicating a charge in progress.

Finally, the charger works well with my Samsung Note 20 Ultra, it charges without problems, I tested at the same time and was able to fully charge the other phone. I also tested using the A34 5G official cable, no change.

I put two photos where we see "super charger connected" (normally it's a 25W Samsung charger), but we see that it's at 67% at 5:53 p.m., and it remains at the same level until 6:53 p.m.: 06. In 13 minutes it didn't charge a single percent.

In my opinion, there is a technical fault with this particular phone.

I doubt there is anything in the charging port, it's new...

Any hint?

Thanks

[Samsung Galaxy A34] htchd2sucks:
Also: it's not a "heating issue", the phone is brand new (1 day), is not in a hot country, was not in the sun, is using a standard 25W Samsung official charger, and was not even plugged for long (1hour or so) before issues started happening.

It's not hot to the touch either and there are no abnomalies visible in any Android settings.
[Samsung Galaxy A34] htchd2sucks:
Very strange, after two days doing nothing (not charging, unplugged, unused), the phone barely discharged. I attempted again to charge it and this time it worked, I was able to charge up to 100%.

There were no changes in between, very strange...

[General Questions and Answers] JakeJensenXK:
Not as far as I'm aware, no, especially if you're flashing a ROM that fakes the model / deviceID. Unless Google feels it's the same device, they won't let you download it. I've had it happen on the same device, same ROM, same everythinf, with just a factory reset.

You might be able to restore some backup app data, but not the whole thing.
