What if developer option is not available and oem lock is ON, Is it still safe to flash the stock firmware?

what about GSM signal? what is the workaround?

Don't quote me on this, but as it's a demo model it doesn't have the physical hardware to connect to a cellular network. I've seen that said somewhere else for the S8 when I had one. But again, that's just my word.

Allwinner H616 (TX6S)

I bricked my new box Tanix TX6S - Allwinner H616 - Android 10 - 4GB/64GB
I wanted to activate the NavBar editing the build.prop - but something went wrong.
Now i got a bootloop and cannot more boot to system. Only i can go to the stock recovery, but i dont have a firmware image to burn it on card with Phoenix Cardburning Tool.
Already contacted Tanix, but no answer (chinese new year?).
Somebody has this firmware?
or can make a backup in the stock recovery tool, so i could try to restore my system with this file in my stock recovery? Is there any possibility?
Thanks for the help.
Nobody can help, on Tanix HP there is nothing. I think very bad from Tanix side to buy this box without offering the firmware image...
No help ?
is there no custom firmware for the h616 boxes? I just got a box but the UI sucks and is laggy, i'd like to change it anways .
If there is a guide I can try to extract it and provide you, but my box is 4/32
there is the stock firmware image on the tanix home page. http://www.tanix-box.com/download-view/tanix-tx6s-firmware-allwinner-h616-original/
Also got this. There's no way to get Android TV on this, is there? I was happy that this came with Android 10 but Netflix isn't working, HBO isn't working. I don't know what the hell is wrong with it.
Can I flash this on T95 H616?
Gaugamala did you find any solution?
Unfortunately not. I haven't had the time lately to even turn the TV on.
Here is the link with all the firmware until now for tx6s https://drive.google.com/drive/folders/1xSony4Dz9Wl2kQYlx77nRN5V4lG-fmgt

Hi.
Install Power Shade:
Grant to Power Shade permissions:
Accessibility and
Access to notifications,
And you will have a functional top bar (status / notifications).
I use it here on my TX6S with stock firmware (Tanix-Box_com-TX6s_android10_20200730.img).
Best regard.
Sorry, I made a mess!
Hi, webipsum
no I didn't mean the status / notifications bar. if you install cinema HD app the remote doesnt work top bar where you got the search button and drop down menu for genre
I am having same issue with RedBox tv app as well the top bar doesn 't work with remote.
I mean top margin of the screen area. I am also running same image (Tanix-Box_com-TX6s_android10_20200730), did some boosting by disabling unecessary apps from startup.
box is running ok, I enabled CEC feature so now my samsung tv remote also works well with the box.
Did anyone manage to do anything with the firmware?
Mine is just an expensive paperweight. Netflix does not work. Nor HBO. Nor my provider TV app. I can't use it for anything and it sucks.

I did some modifications, removed youtube as it comes with ads.
installed all-in-one to disables lots of unnessary apps running in the background.
installed smart youtube tv without ads, cinema hd and other useful apps, it works fine after disabling all junk apps running in the background.
https://forum.freaktab.com/forum/tv...-2gb-16gb-2-4g-5-8g-wifi-lan-bluetooth/page28 I found this topic in another forum about the Tanix Tx6s.
It has some links to firmwares that might work well if anyone wants to test.

Huawei y7p carrier aggregation ( 4g+ )

Hello guys .. im using huawei y7p week ago ... great phone ... my device is updated to android 10 .... the only problem carrier aggregation is not working ... there is no advanced option in menu to enable CA or inside developer mode ... is this phone support CA or not even the cpu kirin 710f support it
+ is there any code or app the find LTE channel bandwith 10/15/20 mhz from huawei device like samsung service mode ?
thanks to all
i find this option inside shortcut maker
I don't know there is any easy way to check Carrier Aggregation support but i think this device support only Contiguous intra-band CA like most of low-cost Chinese devices. I will try this device to my hand and then we know what combinations this device support.
There is no Service Mode exist in Huawei devices.

Yes mostly do inter-band CA... I think you can't get CA enabled with root but you can try. I don't know what CA your Samsung A7 2017 support - if you like you can get log from Samsung so i can list device to my website. Here is instruction: https://mt-tech.fi/en/how-to-get-4g...ions-from-your-android-phone/#Samsung_Devices . Custom roms use same baseband as stock - these files are normally signed so there is no way to modify.

Even on gsmarea have same specs that doesn't tell both devices modem configuration are same... Could have different supported combinations. But of course we can guess both devices have same combinations configured...
Huawei forum answer me .. the phone not support carrier aggregation .. is this CA merge inside the cpu modem or need extra IC on motherboard to work like wifi ic ... GSMARENA was put fake specs if this phone not support carrier aggregation
They just guessing because there is no public specs about carrier aggregation. That is big problem. That is reason why i have build cacombos.com where i list devices support Carrier Aggregation.

My experience low cost Huawei and other Chinese devices (example Xiaomi, Realme) support only Carrier Aggregation Combinations used in China and Contiguous Intra-band CA. But please wait - i will test soon this device when i get so i will update then details.
Example CA i think this support is 1C, 3C, 7C, 38C; 40C, 41C and then 1+3.

I don't know why it says 4CA in Gsmarea... there is too much wrong details about CA... Yes Qualcomm modem support that but Xiaomi seems haven't implement 3CA feature - i just guess more combinations -> more expensive. It's very common Redmi series support only 2CA because in China CA is much used.
My site data is based of modem logs - if you like you can confirm it in UE Capability Information message. Here is instruction how you could get it from modem: https://mt-tech.fi/en/how-to-get-4g...hone/#Method_for_Qualcomm_Devices_before_2020

Custom ROM with Google TV

Hello, you asked me if there is any ROM based on Android 10 with root or with Google TV for Amlogic S095W (A95XF1), I am sure there are people who want the system in all its splendor without having to buy the New Chromecast with Google TV, but With the apk from another XDA thread I think there should already be ROMs created with Google TV, and if not then I think we can start creating them, the truth is if I could create Custom ROM myself then I already had Google TV, but no I know how to do it, I hope your help. And if they asked ... Si, soy un mexicano.

Google TV is simply a launcher and you can install it on any Android TV box running Android 9 Pie.
The internet is full of instructions. I tried it a few months ago and it wasn't waorking in my region

It's not just google TV, we are still on A9 where as A10 is already compatibile with amlogic someone needs to port it from AOSP to ATV

This is what I say. I'm not just talking about the interface, but about Android 10 for the Amlogics, since all the apps that were extracted from the Chromecast with Google TV will not work on ATV9, such as the native app "Configuration" or the "TV Profile Service", Obviously we need the AOSP code of Android 10 to be able to enjoy Google TV in its entirety, such as the "Ambient Mode", (although unfortunately the installation of "Chromecast Built In" would be needed), or the customization of services or that it is worth it Having the "Google TV" mobile app installed, I would be happy to create a ROM but I don't have the knowledge or a team with the minimum requirements. I can support the beta of some ATV10 ROM (or GTV10 in this case).

i did try a quick port of the google tv firmware (i have a full factory firmware i think) it failed to boot, i also tried on another android 10 rom (for s905x) and it failed to boot, i think its due to VNDK version (the s905x a10 was patched to use VNDK 28, GTV is looking for VNDK29, Also its probably missing alot from vendor partition, i haven't had the time to look into it further though

In theory, we would need to make a GTV10 port, since it runs on an Amlogic chip, but in practice this is complicated by the drivers of the different chips. You will need a ROM for Android 10 Amlogic with root and start installing apks one by one until you see the results. In another thread the Android TV SO apks and the GTV layer were published, it would be done in the way that it would make us reinstall our system about 100 times.
I had posted this URL in another thread, its working A10 (AOSP not ATV) on s912 chipset.
@aidanmacgregor Well google play is secondary, can you port this ROM it works for s912

General [Info] Samsung Galaxy Tab A7 Lite

See:
Samsung's Galaxy Tab A7 Lite has leaked once again before launch
The upcoming Samsung Galaxy Tab A7 Lite has leaked once again via unofficial press renders that have been shared by Evan Blass.
www.xda-developers.com
I love the tablet, bought two of the 4GB/64GB for $149 each directly from Samsung site.
Well worth the money, I got them for gaming and watching videos, web surfing, really great tablets.

Impreza thank you for making me rest.....I've been surfing online finding answers if that tablet can be rooted...please let me know if you guys found more info..thank you
Bought this thinking it was an upgrade from my Galaxy tab a 8.0 but since it's one ui core it's missing many features. Trying to trade it in now but it's past the 15 days. There's no smart view to mirror to any tv easily, theres no network file manager in my files (can't access G drive or any others).
Just make sure you know what you're buying. It's not lite because of being smaller than A7, it's a stripped down OS and the features can't be installed afterwards (have tried many apks). I didn't want a big tablet, wanted a mid size tablet with upgraded CPU.

I agree with that. If you are sure you know what you're buying, the experience of the A7 Lite isn't bad. One UI Core is the same stripped down OS in the regular A7 (Snapdragon 662) and in the A7 Lite. CPU works very fluid if you tweak some settings (default One UI animations are awfully slow). Battery lasts A LOT (8,5-9 hours SOT). Smart View was removed and changed in all One UI devices with the upgrade to Android 11/One UI 3.0 (regular and Core), and it was replaced with Google Cast native screen mirroring (ergo Chromecast).
Use Solid Explorer or Amaze if you want to access network file places. It works well on my side.
Despite being a Mediatek tablet, you wont't find anything MTK-related in the tablet. Samsung has its software very well masked. And I think that, in Helio P22T, Mediatek vulnerabilities have been fixed with security monthly patches.

Just wanted to chime in here and say that I successfully rooted the tablet using the same method for the Lite as the regular A7 using THIS GUIDE. Obviously it tripped Knox but I needed it rooted for my use case. One note is that when you download the stock firmware with an application like Samsung Firmware Downloader, make sure you choose the correct Model and Region. These can be found in the settings on the tablet.
Is it possible to enable Google Discover for default launcher?
I bought Galaxy Tab A7 Lite LTE SM-T225 3/32GB and it works quite nice. Small and good device. Would be cool to see on it clean Android or LineageOS (fingers crossed). There is not too many ~8 inch tablets today with the latest Android version.

I've been working on porting TWRP for AOSP Android 11 to this device but have run into some roadblocks.
I currently have TWRP running but touch is not working and I can't seem to get Data R/W with the current tools available. It's possible it's an error in my build or maybe a workflow problem.
If anyone out there with more experience is doing the same or wants to help me sort some things out, please let me know.
I purchased the SM-T225 LTE 4/64GB model, a good device, but there was a problem on the latest T225XXU1AUH5 & UI3 firmware, specifically with a modem... after the end of the call, the mobile network disappears, and after rebooting Baseband Unknown Flashing does not help, only resetting the data helps, but before the next call... The device had Root rights, but is now installed stock firmware and blocked the bootloader, but the problem remains... At the same time, if you install the old modem UDA,UE3,UF2 , it works without problems... Has anyone encountered anything like this?
My only disappointment is that knox is included. I came from tab A 8.0 2019 which has no knox

Android 12 beta install on galaxy s21 5g ?

Hello everyone,
I have the galaxy s21 5g rooted with magisk and Odin.
Everything works fine.
Now I want to try out the android 12 beta, but I don't know how to install the android beta or where to download and how to hold my root.
I don't want to loose my root.
Sry if this is a stupid question I'm new to this procedure.
Thank you all.
I've read it's available in the Samsung Members app, but it must vary upon region or something because it's not there for me.
HI there, sorry for the late response. There is an OTA version you can download and sideload (Via ABD) its in the S21 Ultra Thread. There is a video posted there aswell on how to do it etc.... Im not sure about holding root etc, but you can ask there.
I sideloaded it on my SM-G991B (S21 5g Variant - Exynos)
