What do you mean by wifi app?
If your wifi is not working, it may be that your particular card is not supported.

It was working a few days ago. Last night it showing .... and no connection saved pop up. Blink and continue loading.

@Dunard
I recommend rebooting Remix OS in Safe Mode - it will boot without all 3rd party apps - only basic system ones. If WiFi wil work in Safe Mode, it means some installed app must've got WiFi broken.
To boot in safe mode:
1. ALT+F1 to go into terminal (Must be first enabled - Settings > Experimental Features > Enable debug terminal console)
2. Enter following command:
setprop persist.sys.safemode 1
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
3. Enter command "reboot" to restart computer.
4. Remix will start in Safe mode.
Next reboot of Remix will discard safe mode setting - system will boot normally.

ok thanks

USB Debugging enable on boot?

I've turned on the developer options and can enable the USB Debugging option to be able to use Titanium backup. However I notice when I reboot the device it gets disabled again. Does anyone know of something/somehow to ensure it's enabled on boot?
Thanks!
---Eric
Got it, need root shell of course:
- Remount /system in readwrite mode.
- Add this to /system/build.prop: persist.service.adb.enable=1
- Save, remount as read only.
- Reboot.
Well...didn't really work...though it did, any ideas? USB debugging for me has to be manually picked each time.
So what seems to work for me upon reboot is that I use SManager and have a script run as root at boot up:
#!/system/bin/sh
echo 1 > /data/property/persist.service.adb.enable
This seems to enable USB debugging upon each boot. The build.prop worked once, but did not seem to keep it enabled.
Any chance anyone else has come up wth a different way to retain USB debugging on reboot? I just had to rebuilt my phone from scratch by restoring from stock and executing a script at boot up could potentially be fatal. I'm a linux admin so I do know what I am doing but without a unlocked bootloader and the ability to recover from a CWM backup, I'd rather not mess with the OS too much if possible.

I use Tasker with the secure plugin.
It allows turning on USB Debugging. I use it to turn on USB Debugging as a condition after boot.
Also the worst case with a script, you re-install/flash the OS.
I've reinstalled my Verizon LG G3 from stock ROM twice now. The first time I rooted it with IOROOT and the USB debugging option stays enabled after reboot. The second time I rooted it with Stump root and the USB debugging option does not stay enabled after reboot. No idea what is different between them but maybe someone else can dig through and figure it out.
I have the same problem, when I reboot the phone and open titanium backup.

Set up a task with the "secure Settings" plug in.
You are going to go into the "System Actions" and select "USB Debugging" then select the radio button to "On" then save.
Now you are going to create a profile that uses an Event.
The even will be a "System" type of event and under system you will see "device boot".
Once you have created the event add the USB Enable task you created.
This all assumes you know how to use tasker.
problem fixed......

Actually not true.
I used ioroot and I have the issue of USB Debug not sticking.
That's why I came up with the way to fix it in tasker.

but, it's good to have other solution, it's all good that you guided them who have similar problem.
I have the same problem as you.
tech_head thanks for giving this tasker newb enough bread crumbs that I was able to figure it out and solve the problem (and learn something in the process).
Real easy check usb debug,then plug phone into computer go to your folder that you have adb shift right click mouse all at once open cmd window here check Ethernet mode on phone check rsa cert when prompted type adb devices press enter then adb reboot then enter when LG logo appears unplug phone now your usb debug will always stay checked
WHATSAMATTA U ALUMNI
the tasker approach is now disabled and deathsquad737`s approach has caused it to stay checked... Thanks!
Hi Guys
I found a easy way to fix it.
1) turn on USB debugging
2) Connect G3 to your PC
3) Reboot your G3 when keep connected to PC
4) Unplug
Now the debugging option will be kept.

Remix OS on Parallels Desktop. RESIDENT MODE (WORKING) WITHOUT USING USB TO BOOT

I have been looking around the web but no one has completed the steps to install REMIX OS on PARALLELS
YOU MIGHT WANT TO TRY THIS ON AN EXTERNAL HARD DRIVE AS WELL. IT MIGHT WORK.
THIS IS NOT GUEST MODE! YOU ARE ABLE TO SAVE YOUR DATA!
Here are my steps :
1. I'm sure by now everyone has installed Remix OS on their USB so i'll skip to the next part.
2. add new virtual machine.
3. on the bottom right corner "continue without a source".
4. Choose more linux" - other linux kernel 2.6
5. customize settings before installation > continue > hardware > boot order > "tick" external device > "tick" select boot device on startup > external boot device (drop down menu) choose you usb where you installed Remix OS.
6. once it boots up, press tab, type " INSTALL=1 " it will look something like this > CREATE_DATA_IMG=1 INSTALL=1 <
7. You will see your hard drive and sd/mmc.
8. create / modify your hard drive to bootable.
9. Format your hard drive to ext4
10. install grub, do not install grub 2.
11 reboot and close parallels.
12. go into you remix os parallels settings and remove mounted usb. hardware > boot order > "untick" external device > "untick" select boot device on startup > external boot device (drop down menu) choose none.
13. you are now able to save your data.
mine is running at 4gb ram plus 64gb rom memory. no wifi but ethernet is connected, still unable to download stuff after installing google play store,
will be trying out again after a new update.

Remix OS on a Cherry Trail Tablet?

Specifically attempting to install it on an HP Envy Note 8 with an Atom x5 processor and 2GB of RAM. It originally had Windows 10 on it but I've pretty much wiped it out (formatted the entire SSD including recovery partitions).
I have an 8GB flashdrive formatted to FAT32. I run the 32 bit Remix OS installer and once it finishes I use a micro USB to USB adapter to insert the flash drive. When running the 64 bit installer the Flash Drive shows up as a bootable device and up on selecting I get an error with a memory location (ex)0x8XXXXXX something.
I tried the 32 bit installer (probably should have used that in the first place) I do the same steps use the Remix OS installer Tool and start up the tablet. However this time the tablet does not recognize the flash drive as a bootable device (literally just does not show up in the list of bootable devices have re-run the installer 3-4 times with no change). I have tried it with and without virtualization enabled and with and without secure boot enabled and get the same problem.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
update: I got it to boot 64 with secure boot disabled. How do actually install the files to the local drive?
Update 2: Was able to install to the local hard drive by hitting e on the selection screen (Guest or Resident) and adding INSTALL=1 DEBUG= to the end of the parameters section but above the existing new line.
It's working and running well however the touchscreen is unresponsive any way to get that working? Right now I'm using a micro USB splitter and a keyboard/mouse plugged into the USB ports.
Im in, I'll recieve my mi Pad 2 soon (same cpu) I'll try to get it working too when I rcieve it is there a working Android solution for ur envy?

Check if reloading the modules helps.
Either #rmmod i2c_hid && modprobe i2c_hid
Or start RemixOS from fully off i.e. don't reboot from Windows

Remix OS is the only OS on my tab I did a complete re-install and disconnected the Keyboard and Mouse before boot (didn't actually do that intentionally as a troubleshooting tip I just needed to attach the charger). It's working now!
One issue after the next~ but im excited so far. Touch screen is working OS is installed.
Now I can't get the screen to rotate though. I double checked auto rotate is on and I also attempted to double tap F11 to get it to manually rotate but neither seems to work
Edit: On top of that I get stuck at a flashing Remix OS screen after reboot now that doesn't go away even after around 20 minutes of waiting.

Yes it's force locked by default (think of it in terms of a PC and that makes sense)
Have a look at one of my threads; either Overlay Apps, etc.. Or systemless root
Personally I'd try the systemless root (if you are running 64bit which I guess you are); it has rotation enabled and has that touchscreen 'fix' as a su.d (init.d) script.
So after restarting the system I'm stuck at a flashing Remix OS (Remix OS is installed to my hard drive after using the installer I removed the USB drive and my initial boot was from the hard drive not a USB) any way to get around this?! Persists even after multiple reboots. I've let it sit for around 20 minutes on this one now.

Does mount show that /data is mounted? It could be that data.img has corrupted like from a bad unmount. Not sure if you have access to it; but to confirm modify grub to use guest mode (data in ram) by adding/changing DATA_IN_MEM=1
I tried add DATA_IN_MEM=1 to the boot but it didn't seem to make a difference (although it did notably restart on it's own instead of just staying at the flashing screen) where do I need to type "mount"?

So after an attempted reinstall i get the same issue anytime I shut down and restart. The only way i can boot is from the installer screen by choosing "Run Android x86" the grub boot doesn't work
edit: using the data_in_mem and data= parameters it launches in guest mode
edit 2: guest mode keeps restarting itself and doesnt respond to keyboard input
edit 3: i had plugged in a flash drive unplugging it made it go back to the remixos logo and not boot

Can you run through your install procedure, as your installing from a wiped SSD right?
HypoTurtle said:

Sure
I run the "Remix OS for PC Installation Tool" from a separate windows PC and use the "USB DRIVE" option to put the 64 bit remix os files on my flash drive
I then use a powered USB HUB and a Micro USB to USB converter to plug in a keyboard and the flash drive. I hold down the volume down key on my tablet to get the boot options and then choose the flash drive as the boot drive
From there I'm given the option of "resident mode" and "guest mode" I hit "e" on the resident mode and add the lines INSTALL=1 and DEBUG= to the second from last line in the grub commands.
I then get a blue screen I choose my hard drive as the install location and choose to format it to ext4, I allow grub and grub 2 to install, and install it as "read/write". It then says "expecting to write" and then runs from 0 to 100% and says syncing to disk. From there I have the option to "Boot to Android X86" or "Restart" and I remove the flash drive.
If I choose "Boot to Android X86" it boots into remix OS and I can use it until I restart. After restart I get the flashing white Remix OS logo and it never finishes booting (just to be certain it wasn't an issue with it taking a while I literally let it sit over night for about 10 hours to see if it ever finished and it did not).
If I choose "Restart" I get the flashing white Remix OS logo after the grub screen and it never loads.
I think that should cover it.

ADB initiated Titanium Backup?

Background:
I have a rooted SM-G900V (Verizon Galaxy S5) running Lollipop with a broken screen. I have Titanium Backup installed and it was supposed to be running weekly but wasn't. I have recovered my photos, contacts, etc. by connecting to my PC and copying the internal storage and from my gmail restore to a new GS5. I want to recover app data from a couple apps. The phone has USB debug turned on and I can connect with ADB.
I thought I could just run an ADB backup, but apparently in order for the backup to initiate I have to press a button on the lower right of the screen...which is broken. I suppose if I could connect via WiFi and then use a MHL cable I could use a keyboard/mouse to click the button on the phone but I don't have a MHL cable right now and I don't know if that would work anyway (WiFi ADB hasn't worked for me to this point).
THE QUESTION:
I've done a lot of reading and found a number of ADB options that sounded viable, but have not been successful. I have TitaniumBackup installed and thought that I could launch the "backup all" batch process but don't see how to make that happen. I have a new GS5 that is identical setup so I could record some actions on that one and play them on the broken one potentially.
I'm open to any suggestions.

The only thing I can think of is to guide you to the following thread that should, hopefully, be what you need.
https://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2786395
Good Luck!
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
UNLESS asked to do so, PLEASE don't PM me regarding support. Sent using The ClaRetoX Forum App on my Enigma Machine {aenigma = Latin for "Riddle"}.
I really appreciate the suggestion. FWIW, I sort of came up with a similar approach myself that I almost have working. I turned on ADB WiFi on the device and then plugged in my wireless USB mouse/keyboard. I set up a script that performs a screen capture every 2 seconds and downloads it locally. With Windows7 image viewer, it automatically updates when the image changes so I get a slide show of what's happening on screen. The only issue I have is that the SD card isn't set up for TitaniumBackup apparently since I get an error when I select the backup action. If I can get TitaniumBackup set up correctly, I should be golden!
Thanks for posting that link. Ironically, the solution I developed was very similar in concept. I will give a short description for others who may need to recover data from a phone with a broken screen.
Prerequisites:
* TitaniumBackup - This can be installed from the Play store even if the phone is not functioning
* USB debug mode enabled - Without this, you are stuck. The only issue here is newer phones don't always enable MTP on connection. My old on did but the new one does not. If it doesn't connect via MTP, you will need to install MTPEnabler or similar.
* USB keyboard/mouse combination
* USB cable
* Charged fully functional phone sans screen
* ADB software - You must have the same version on the phone and PC. If not, it won't work reliably/at all. I went with fastboot_adb(1.0.32)_071114_r21 since I have 1.0.32 on my SM-G900V.
Basic steps:
1) Unpack the ADB software on your PC in a convenient location (C:\ADB)
2) Connect phone to PC via USB
3) Send command to enable WiFi ADB connection
4) Disconnect phone from USB
5) Connect ADB via WiFi
6) Run following batch script:
:loop
adb shell screencap /sdcard/screen.png
del screen.png
adb pull /sdcard/screen.png
echo captured
timeout /t 2
goto loop
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
This will dump a screen shot every 2 seconds
7) Open screen.png in Windows image viewer. It should automatically update when the image is refreshed.
8) Type "launch titaniumbackup" and press enter on wireless keyboard.
9) Using either tab or mouse, select the check box to launch TB.
10) Using either tab or mouse, select "menu" from upper right.
11) Using mouse, select "batch actions" from the list.
12) Using mouse, select "RUN" next to "Backup all user apps" from the list.
If all went well, you now have your phone backup up all application data to your SD card which can be easily used on a new phone to restore data.
NOTE:
It may be possible to also use the built-in ADB backup function. I attempted this at one point, but it requires selecting a button in the lower right on the phone. Since I was using ADB over USB at the time, I could not click the button on the phone since I only had one device connected (no hub). If you have a hub it may be possible to use that approach. Alternately, if you use ADB over WiFi, it should also work. However, be aware that there is no way to see where you are clicking or confirm that it worked other than looking at the files on the SD card as ADB backup doesn't appear to give any feedback. Also, this isn't as easy as TB when it comes to restoring as you either have to backup every app one at a time or all together. When restoring, it's also a one shot deal so you can't select specific apps to restore from a larger set.

Bad package installed in Xiaomi MI A2 Lite

Hello,
I have a big problem to uninstall a package that I naively installed on the phone.
First of all, the phone works rather normally but:
a) I can't uninstall this app
b) I can't uninstall any other app
c) The app is present in the Accessibility section as a service (it's a clone of LiveNetTv).
The package is named com.a02f252e890bf12d80.eccfe059f8f8a9f521.
I would like to connect the phone to PC via Adb so that I can uninstall the app
from Adb using the indications described here:
h ttps://gadgetstouse.com/blog/2020/07/10/how-to-uninstall-stock-apps-from-android-without-rooting/
The big problem is this one: from the Developer options, when I enable "Debug USB" option,
immediately the option is turned off (every single time), so it's almost impossible for me
to see the phone from PC: if from Powershell I launch the command "adb devices", the device
is never recognized so I can't launch any command to uninstall the app.
I hope you can help me with step by step: the device is not rooted and I prefer not to root it.
Thanks so much for the attention.

In Developer options I don't see the option you quote.
Under System -> Advanced -> Reset options I only have 3 voices:
a) Reset Wi-Fi, mobile data and Bluetooth: I already did it.
b) Reset App Preferences (once clicked, the menu disappears immediately).
c) Reset All Data (I hope to solve before doing this).
For better info, the software of this device is of the type Android One.
Thanks for the answers,
at the end I preferred doing a reset of the phone's data.
With apps memorized in Google Drive it seems not so long to recuperate
a configuration similar to the original.
