Could you point me to specific url with zip you are flashing with twrp, for example for 2.5.2? Also, do you have root and/or modified boot image flashed?

So if I understand correctly - I have to restore stock recovery?
[Nothing Phone 2] Noryakky:
I was able to update the phone to 2.5.5 with OrangeFox recovery, using fullOTA image, it wasn't possible with TWRP unfortunately. Saddly, after flashing new update my dial app updater (682) still won't work and I don't have a clue why. Is it possible for you guys to upload yours .apk of this app If I recall correctly, it's called `com.nothing.OfflineOTAUpgradeApp`

Can I relock the bootloader after I flash the fullOTA with OFOX?
[Nothing Phone 2] Noryakky:
Yes, I did it today after updating to 2.5.5 with OFOX.
[Nothing Phone 2] victoriordachi:
What are the files you used for Full OTA? Those 3 archives with image logical in their name?
[Nothing Phone 2] Noryakky:
Nope, those 3 with fullOTA in the name. They're not in the last 2x hotfix versions unfortunately if I remember correctly

Has anyone encountered this error when attempting to unlock a bootloader with the sn.img retrieved from ZUI ? Does anyone know which partition contains the serial that the unlock command references?
[Lenovo Legion Phone Duel 2] project_2501:
For anyone with the same issue, it's advised to try using all zeroes (00000000) with the IMEI of the device on the ZUI unlock site if you encounter what's described above.

Hi,

I've tried a lot and watched a lot of videos but can't succeed. The result right now is that I've managed to wipe everything and installed TRWP. Nothing else is presently installed.

I tried installing the Magisk*apk right through TRWP, which failed. Even when I renamed it into *zip.

What do I have to do - step by step - to get a rooted phone? No custom rom, just the latest Samsung software with full ROOT.

Thanks a lot.
[Galaxy S6 Edge+ Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] parrots_:
You could just patch the AP file with the Magisk app and flash it in Odin.

What happens when you try to flash the Magisk ZIP in TWRP?
[Galaxy S6 Edge+ Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Marvolo1590:
There was an error message. Don't remember which.

Now currently there's no OS installed. Am I right that I have to re-download the Samsung stock rom and install it first again?

Or can I continue with root from TWRP while at the same time installing the OS? Or does the OS have to be installed first and root is done from within a running OS? And how exactly do I have to continue now?

Won't reinstalling the Samsung stock rom delete TWRP again?
[Galaxy S6 Edge+ Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Marvolo1590:
PS: I have now downloaded and installed "Nougat Root SuperSU No Kernel" to flash with TWRP.

Will this enable full Root as well?

Looks like it's just SuperSU, nothing in the system part. You could just use SuperSU by itself, but I think you'll have to reflash because there's no OS installed.

Dear Specialists!

I have a HTC One M9 4.28.401.3 CID HTC_102 MID OPJA10000 which ran on CM12 or so years before. Somebody borrowed the mobile and must have tried to reset it, leading to a phone only starting the boot menu, because no ROM is installed.

For resetting to stock I need a 4.28.401.3 RUU.exe, right ???

The phone is relocked and S-ON, no chance to unlock or S-OFF it as developer mode is not reachable due to missing OS.

fastboot says:

C:\ADB+Fastboot> fastboot getvar all

(bootloader) kernel: lk

(bootloader) version: 1.0

(bootloader) serialno: xxxxxxxxxxxxxx

(bootloader) version-bootloader: 1.0.0.0000

(bootloader) mid: 0PJA10000

(bootloader) cid: HTC__102

Has anyone an idea, how I can reactivate the phone - stock or custom ROM doesn`t matter.

The method quoted in HTC One M9 - 3.35.401.12 RUU installer how to guide! didn´t work, due to lower bootloader version .

[Xiaomi Poco X6 Pro / Redmi K70E] Seroko:
This new "swipe left for notifications-right for panel" thing is useless when you can have all on screen at the same time like in previous android/miui/whatever builds.

I've seen that many devices have the option to change to the old notification/control panel style, but not on X6 Pro. Is there a way to get this back on this device? I've tried with that "Hidden Miui/HyperOs settings" app but can't find that option.
[Xiaomi Poco X6 Pro / Redmi K70E] NOSS8:
Xiaomi has removed it from devices released with HyperOS.
[Xiaomi Poco X6 Pro / Redmi K70E] Seroko:
But is there any way to get it? Even if root is needed, or switching roms, I srsly hate this new style.
[Xiaomi Poco X6 Pro / Redmi K70E] NOSS8:
I don't know, maybe look for A14 modules for that or flash a CN rom to see if it's available.
[Xiaomi Poco X6 Pro / Redmi K70E] Seroko:
No idea about the A14 modules, I don't even know what they are (about to google it now). The chinese roms have this "Classic Control Panel" option for sure? Might be an option.
[Xiaomi Poco X6 Pro / Redmi K70E] Ponchofc:
How can i install it?
[Xiaomi Poco X6 Pro / Redmi K70E] NOSS8:
The bootloader must be unlocked.

Do you have a Poco or a Xiaomi?
[Xiaomi Poco X6 Pro / Redmi K70E] Herrnobiz:
There's no need to bother and install a full custom rom, i'm on the EU 1.0.8.UNLEUXM and i'm using pengeek, a magisk module to customize the rom.

The setting in pengeek is called "force enable CC Style switch" and once enabled it will re-enable in the phone settings what you want, the old or the new interface

[General Topics] Hendrix7:
The story of how Samsung fixed slow motion in 2015 just to ruin it again a few years later.​

2013 was the year where the major smartphone vendors first set foot on HD 720p slow-motion (high-frame rate) video recording on their flagship devices.

In 2013, the Galaxy Note 3 first brought 1080p at 60fps for smoothness (encoded as real-time video), and both Apple and Samsung added 720p at 120fps, but there was a crucial difference between how Apple and Samsung did things:

Apple encoded their 720p@120fps video in real-time and with audio, where as Samsung encoded it at a slower rate than real-time and no audio.

The way Apple did it was superior for video editing and allowed for normal watching with audio. Apple even pre-installed a slow-motion editor that let the user select parts that are slow and parts that are in real-time:

(How To Make Slow Motion Video On The iPhone 5S)

Samsung thankfully did the same thing in 2015, with the Galaxy S6, and I was proud of it. I could not care less that Samsung was "copying Apple", I just care that it is an improvement. The S6 also brought its slow-motion video editor:

(source: How do I take pictures by Slow motion mode on Galaxy S6/S6 edge (Hong-Kong version)?)
​

This gives the user the freedom to set their preferred playback speed in the video editor. It does not dictate that 1× playback speed is 1/4 or 1/8 or whichever other rate of real-life speed. 1× playback speed must match 1× real-life speed to clear up all confusion.

But at some point, Samsung reverted back to the inferior behaviour of slowing down the video file instead of letting the user decide the playback speed. The only improvement is that this time, it has a pitched-down audio track. Better than no audio track at all.

Side note: Yes, I know, the Samsung Omnia II from 2009 already had 240p at 120fps (no audio, not real-time), but the Galaxy S1, S2, Note 1, and S3 didn't (without modifications), and the S4 GT-i9505 initially had a bug where slow motion video would be recorded at a very low framerate, something like 15 fps instead of the expected 120 fps.

Hi all, I'm trying to build and flash a standard, recent AOSP userdebug build (aosp_shiba-trunk_staging-userdebug) to my Pixel 8, but unfortunately I'm getting vendor partition issues when booting:

Code:

[ 19.463982][ T1] init: DM_DEV_STATUS failed for vendor_a: No such device or address
[ 19.486521][ T1] init: Failed to mount /vendor: No such device or address
[ 19.486541][ T1] init: Failed to mount required partitions early ...
[ 19.506677][ T1] init: InitFatalReboot: signal 6

However, AOSP build doesn't poop out a vendor.img, and the partition table doesn't support one either. Does anyone know how I can fix this? I tried flashing the stock vendor.img for the Pixel 8 to a logical volume manually created with `fastboot create-logical-volume vendor 0` and `fastboot flash vendor`, but it gives the exact same error.

For reference, I flashed everything using `fastboot flashall` in `./out/target/product/shiba`, however it gave trouble when trying to flash the vendor partition, as there wasn't an vendor.img, while there is flash vendor in ./out/target/product/shiba/fastboot-info.txt

Thanks

I think I'm just going to return it. I work in IT and the rule is once something is compromised you start over, as there's no way to guarantee things have been entirely cleaned up. That adups.com site has been known to host spyware in the past. While I don't believe that site is malicious in and of itself (it's a general purpose firmware download hosting platform) malicious actors have used it before. There is no trust chain with this device, I can't figure out who made it. So even if I got the original firmware out of the B slot after putting a device compatible image into the A slot to crack it I'd still never trust it. I did look at the link from z27zez (Appreciated!), two of the options there had firmware images on the internet, but neither downloaded correctly. Maybe that was an error on my side, but overall this is turning into a palaver. I'm going to reset, regroup, and change direction.

I would appreciate confirmation that the assertions about needing the boot.img firmware to root and it not being available off the device itself short of physically reading the NAND IC are correct. That will help me in the future so I'm not starting from misconceptions. Thanks.

Hello

I hope you are all doing great.

okay, so I bought my S23U almost a year ago and I bought it from Hong Kong but the firmware is Chinese, I found that out about 2 weeks ago, when I tried to add my Octopus Card to Samsung Wallet and also some of my loyalty cards but I couldn't since it is a chinses version, and so I was debating my self if I should flash the Hong Kong TGY firmware but I had some concerns like

if I do that will all my data be gone?

Will Knox be gone?

will the phone slow down?

will it be less security?

Or is it fine since it is the same model

and If I do flash the firmware what should expect, as a side effect of changing the firmware
