This module is a all in one which contains everything you need to reach strong integrity in a single module!

I have lineage-19.1-20241019-UNOFFICIAL-arm64_bgN-vndklite-signed.img build and am experiencing an issue with 'Copy data' when first setting up the new device through Google's steps. When I connect cable to my old phone and start the transfer LineageOS crashes entirely to some power off/download mode I believe.

Qin F21 Pro MT6761, kernel 4.19.127, dynamic partition system A/B

I thought the issue might be that I need to also flash the .img to system_b subpartition. I initially tried to flash both slots but it wouldn't let me resize system_b. I then checked and strangely the subpartition sizes for B slots of system, vendor, and product are 0x0.

I'm not sure if this is how the maufacturer set it up or did my GSI flash on system_a affect this? Is this how it's supposed to be?

Should I try manually size system_b and flash there too or is it redundant? I read it may make Magisk more stable.
Also I didn't delete product subpartitions but instead flashed an almost empty one as I read not having it could also affect Magisk. Do I need to resize the whole super partition?

Is this a different issue? Theoretically 'Copy data' should be targeting only /data right (other than settings maybe)?. Could it be a read/write or encryption error? I factory reset after GSI flash so that should've been ok to unencrypt /data and vndklite is meant to have /system as r/w right?

The only other thing I could think of is does it need Google Play device certification first? With Gapps and being a signed image it already passes basic integrity and my account signs in fine but I haven't registred it yet.

Any help for a novice would be much appreciated!
Thank you!

I just updated the suDROID script as promised so here is the change log, but before that wanna tell you about two interesting futures that will arrive with the next 2.2 update Amazon Fire support AND JAILBREAK yeah.

DOES NOT have a Snapdragon processor, actually the old models have so wait for the updates suppressbotwarnings

I bricked my dev phone trying to install a GSI and recently installed twrp for kerin 960, meant for mate 9 but also works for pro according to the testers.

However, it keeps rebooting back to fastboot after just a few seconds. What could be the best solution for this? I also want to install magisk + custom rom, but I will just stick with GSIs til I fix this. what would be the best course of action here? This phone is great with app tests but i need to update to recent android versions for numerous reasons.

I require the Ticwatch E3 TWRP image file so that I can root this watch

Does anyone have it?
Does it exist?

Codename: ricefish

Since you can't access the fastboot to unlock the bootloader is there a way to flash custom recovery like Samsung phone have Odin I used to have Samsung a05 (not long ago) I flashed twrp without even unlocking the bootloader

Can anyone help me flash nethunter to this I've tried the official from kali website to kekhunter 420 just had the one plus laying around and finally decided to give it a shot

Description: Hi, My requirement is that the phone should have a good camera, custom roms and active community support.

I am currently using OnePlus Nord 1 2020 model, and it has been great, It is rooted, pixel os A13

The only quirks it has is that, the phone does not have a custom recovery.

Therefore, I am open to your recommendations.

Thank you.

Hi, I have been trying to install TWRP on an old tablet that I had at home, to then root it and make some performance improvements, the situation is that the first time i used a different model’s .tar file by mistake and the device got stuck in download mode, then i rebooted it, an error appeared on screen, after that i entered odin mode again, this time i installed the correct model’s .tar file, but now when i try to enter recovery mode, a red exclamation mark (!) appears in the corner of the device and nothing happens at all, it doesn’t even enter the default recovery mode, if i try to turn it on, it does it normally and everything seems to be fine, could anyone help me?

Ok so I enforced the denylist and added my giffgaff app to it, and I have also downloaded hide my applist and added the app to that, blacklisted it and exclude system app and I have also flashed Shamiko but I cannot use it because then I can't use banking apps.

I keep getting a notification saying to connect to my network which I do but it then says "this request was blocked by our security service"

That's basically it, I really don't know what to do any help would be much appreciated.

Thanks.

Boutta get one, any ideas?

Hello, all! So this is my first time rooting and I have an unlocked phone (carrier wise) and I've unlocked the bootloader. The problem I'm running into and hope someone can shine some light on is that when I'm trying to flash my magisk'd edited boot.img, the error comes back as this-

https://preview.redd.it/ei4iohbnvzxd1.png?width=485&format=png&auto=webp&s=b7fce8db09a6d4b3c83605a1848f8cd9e3a373c3

I've tried doing boot, boot_a, boot_b. My recovery mode says in red at the top "AP Fastboot Mode (Secure)" and not sure if that affects anything and plus it says "flashing_unlocked cid: 0x0032"

BTW I'm using this primarily as my guide. I'm also using this as my boot.img (U1UDS34.16-92-3). Thank you! :)

I need to root my phone to change bootanimation and shutdownanimation using magisk

hi! i'm a grad student new to rooting and am using a google pixel 2 as a component for my final project.

i installed LineageOS 21 onto the device, realizing too late that the software is too recent to be compatible with android 11. i'm having trouble finding Lineage 18.1 to install instead, and need some help troubleshooting the device and finding out where i can download the 18.1 version of Lineage. thanks!

I had an issue where I tried one time updating via smart switch Mac the system software of my s21 ultra 5g. It gave a blue screen with Korean on it and seemed to hang. It ended up with me trying to cancel it, but it being stuck in that screen. Then I took to repair shop and they got it working again, it didn't look like it was rooted. I have now worked how to hard reset and wipe partition etc. Tried again but it still will not update. Last was 01 April 2024, bad luck day lol. Have check led and it should be 6.1 ONE UI and Android 14 and OCT patch. Any thoughts on putting it back to normal so I can update? It won't use Google pay/wallet says there is security issue.

Hello guys, I need help. I have a Chinese device that was a global rom, it had an unlocked bootloader but no root, after I factory reset, WhatsApp detected the bootloader and it no longer worked, I had to root it to hide the unlocked bootloader and it worked.

But, after that, the bank applications stopped working, I've tried hiding the root in every way possible, zygisk, deny list, play store certificate, magisk hide, play integrity, lsposed, hidemyapps, but the banks don't work.

I would like to know, is there a way for me to remove root without losing my data? specifically WhatsApp, which is already logged in, and I don't want to lose it at all, as it took a lot of work to get it back, to be able to use the banking apps?

poco x4 gt miui 14.0.7.0 TLOEUXM Android 13

Not sure if there’s a specific process I should follow for MI software on the 6a, but I can’t seem to get OrangeFox or TWRP to boot. ADB connects without any issues, and I can get into fastboot and flash images fine. But when I try to boot into recovery by holding down Vol+, the screen goes black, and it just reboots. If I keep holding Vol+, it ends up in a boot loop. Any ideas?

Redmi 6A, global rom.

May have found a clue?

fastboot flashing get_unlock_ability returns; (bootloader) unlock_ability = 0

But when booting it says "unlocked" under the logo, and in settings, i enabled OEM unlocking and USB Debugging, without any problems.

So I have a TCL Android TV that I want to root. Looking around the internet it seems that Magisk is the best tool for this, but it requires a boot.img for my device. I'm not sure where and how to obtain this img.. I do have the firmware update file for the TV but it's in this PKG format that I can't seem to unpack. If anyone knows any way to go about this, help would be greatly appreciated

Hi everyone,I recently rooted my phone and installed playintegrityfix.

I keep checking for playintegrity and I keep getting this.

Is it possible to root my android (Samsung galaxy a13 5g) in North America? I don’t have the oem unlocking option

Hello, I've been trying to unlock this phone for a little while - I kept running into issues where everything would be working fine, but running fastboot oem unlock and fastboot flashing unlock does absolutely nothing. The bootloader seems to be locked by the manufacturer, causing it to freeze on the bright blue "Opel" startup screen when I attempt to access it using button combinations or ADB commands. However, I have successfully accessed recovery mode and a diagnostic menu in Chinese which is cool I guess, but not my intended outcome.
I found a post on XDA forums discussing this but the OP doesn't seem to have been online since 2023 and there's no help available at all. Can someone please advise on what to do from here???
