Ioctls for /dev/jpeg2 on nexus 6p - Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi, everyone. I am having a problem here and hope someone can give an advise.
I got a arm32 binary running on my nexus 6p with android 8.1. I crosscompiled the qemu and use the user mode to run that binary on my nexus 6p. And I found out that there are some ioctls that qemu doesn't support even with the latest version. And for my binary, it opens /dev/jpeg2 and use ioctls. Actually in my device, there are jpeg1-jpeg4 under /dev. So if I want to add those ioctls for qemu, I have to find what ioctls /dev/jpeg2 provides. And the thing is that I can't find that, it seems it's provided by qualcomm and don't have the source code.
One thing I've found is this one:
root/drivers/media/video/msm/jpeg_10/msm_jpeg_sync.c (Seems new users can't put url)
It seems right, but I tried to add those ioctls and failed. And this code has no /dev/jpeg2. I have no idea what should I do. Can anyone give me some suggestions?

Read/Write permission in Bluestacks

Just curious but I've been doing research into this topic and have not been able to find the answer.
Has bluestacks always denied read write permissions in every version?
If not, at what point did they start denying read write?
My bluestacks version is 2.5.97.6358. Yes I know I can use bluestacks tweaker to root it but my goal is to permanently root it. I have found a few guides on the web that detail how to do this. At least one of them is right here on XDA.
But when I get to the point where I am supposed to mount system as read write, I am unable to achieve read write status.
Does anyone know if it's possible to do? Thank you

Ok thank you Ibuprophen. I will read those links you posted. At least one of them is pretty old. Do you think it will still be relevant for my version of bluestacks?

It all depends on the subject matter.
There's older information (even on closed threads) that provided me with valuable information.
I always try to encourage others to do their homework and research information to better familiarize themselves and any information is better than no information.
The age of the information only matters with areas that are outdated in itself.
I have a Galaxy S3 and a bit more than 50% of the information out there are older than a year +/- but, still applies to this day.

Ok thank you Ibuprophen. I guess I was just worried that the app developers, as time went by, changed or added something to stop end users from gaining read write access. They have released so many versions, updated so many times. but I will definitely follow your advice and read those because you are right, a lot of the old information is still valid today.

Samsung Galaxy Tab 3 (SM T113)

Hello, I have a Galaxy Tab 3 (SM T113) and the current operating system is Android 4.4.4. I want to install Android 7.x. On my S2 I was able to install Lineage Android 7.1.2. Could someone here give me a hint how and where to get a newer Android for this tablet. I also hope that I am correct in this area of the forum and not "off topic". About support I would be very grateful. Greetings from Hamburg.Andreas

This isn't off topic since it's located on the Q&A area of the forum.
I'm just helping you out so you will know where to go for some support/guidance. Just keep in mind that this device model does have a dedicated area of the forum and, probably, the best way to obtain member guidance from those who already has this device.
I'm just happy to help you out! :thumbup:

Hello Andreas , there is no higher build then 7.12 for now .

QEMU question

Hello everyone
I wanted to test another solution for having Linux on Android, which is Virtual Machine. I found this Limbo thing but I have doubts. Can someone tell me which QEMU adaptation for android (Limbo) is real and which one is either outdated or plain fake/malware?
One is on Android Play Store:
https://play.google.com/store/apps/...be.android.app.com.limbo.emu.main.armv7&hl=pl
...and seems kinda fake'y because of the terrible "english" description and dead website link.
The other is from this site:
https://limboemulator.weebly.com/
...which also links to GitHub but it doesn't appear on Play Store so it's not "approved".
Versions of those two don't add up, that's why I don't think they are one and the same. Thanks in advance.

Sadly one topic is about rooting Kindle (using some edited QEMU exploit) and the other offers old QEMU from mediafire links without linking directly to any official QEMU for Android project.
What I need to know is which source of Android QEMU is the legit one as both that I found seem fishy in some aspect and I'd prefer not to install some malware. I just need the most recent version possible of legit QEMU project for Android. Which and who's project it is doesn't matter as long as it works and it's actively maintained.

That one thread seems to be the only one regarding development for this specific device.
I've seen many devices fall into a non productive state where there's next to nothing posted for it besides some questions.
I wish that I could provide you with some better guidance but, I've never owned one of those J series devices.
Hopefully someone will pop in to this thread with some better news. I do wish you the best of luck with this.

Doubts regarding rooting my out-of-warranty Samsung Galaxy phone

Hi. I own a Samsung Galaxy A9 Pro (2016) (SM-A910F/DS) with Android 8.0 (August security patch). It is now out of warranty. I want to root it. I do have prior experience in rooting my secondary Android phone but this phone is my daily driver and hence want some doubts cleared before attempting to root it using Odin. Following are the questions I need answers for:-
I am just going to root my phone to do some small scale customisation. I don't want to flash a custom or stock ROM. Some sources on the internet say that simply rooting the phone won't trip its KNOX flag while others say it will. What is the truth?
If indeed the KNOX flag gets tripped, will I ever be able to use Samsung Pay on my phone again?
If the KNOX flag doesn't trip, will Samsung Pay work on a rooted phone?
The firmware.mobi site hasn't yet updated the SM-A910F's firmware version to that of Android 8.0. My phone had received the Oreo update on 18th October, 2018. Can I still root my phone using whatever latest CF-Auto-Root package I get from there?
How to know if my phone is encrypted? I am confused about this because I haven't manually enabled any kind of encryption on my phone but since there is so much caution regarding rooting an encrypted phone, I don't want to take any chance.
So, these are the 5 questions which I want satisfactory answers for before I root my phone. A good explanation which will ward off my anxiety will be highly appreciated. Thanks in advance!

I understand your frustration but, please remember that developments for devices sometimes take a while before any developments begin to emerge. This is especially true for many Samsung devices too.
Also, the more members who request for a device the better. I can only encourage you to also request for the A9 Series device within the thread from the link that I had provided you with (the last one on my previous post).
Good Luck!

Yes, rooting your phone with CF / TWRP will trip Knox and disable Samsung Pay. Google Pay however will work on a device that has been returned to stock, but not one that has active root. Since it's looking for root as opposed to a Knox bit, this can probably be masked pretty easily if you wanted to use it on a rooted device.
Looking on firmware.mobi, I see 3 releases already for CF on Android 8.0 for your phone.
And your phone most definitely is encrypted. Any Samsung with Android 7.0 from the factory is encrypted. The exception is devices that were running Android 6 or lower that have been upgraded to 7+ and weren't encrypted by the user beforehand.
