I have a Samsung Tab 3 SM-T820. I noticed a few weeks ago it was still running android 7. Santa didn't bring me a new tablet.... So, I decided to tinker with it and see if I could root it and get it up to a newer Android version. I followed some instructions and got TWRP on it and had it...

Ok, I'm trying to figure out how to root my Samsung SM-T820 tablet. I just noticed a few days ago it's running Android 7 and figure I should see if I can get it up to Android 9 or 10. I found instructions on how to root it. The instructions say to go to sammobile.com and download the...

Ok, so I'm a very newbe programmer. I do know a little C++. But I wanted to see if I could create a basic Hello World android app. I found a video on YouTube that I'm trying to follow along. I'm pretty sure my code is identical to his code. But mine won't compile. Here's the code...

I'm trying to figure out how to access system ui tuner. If I search the settings for system ui, it finds it, but I can't launch it. I keep reading to hold down the gear icon in the notification area for 10 seconds and it's supposed to add system ui tuner to the settings but that's not working...

So a week ago, I got the g7 power phone which has the 5000 mAh battery in it. It advertises 3 day battery life. A few years ago, I had a different 5000 mAh phone and I could go a week between charges. This phone doesn't go a full 24 hours. When I check battery usage, the highest usage app is...

Has anyone figured out how to root a Verizon vs996 phone? I read on the internet its maybe possible using the Frankenstein bug but I cant seem to find any detailed guides on how to root my vs996 using the Frankenstein bug. If anyone could point me to detailed instructions, it would be greatly...

I dont know why but every few minutes while listening to music on my v30 vs996, the music will briefly go silent and then stutter then keep playing. Does anyone have any troubleshooting method? I dont want to uninstall all of my apps. Is there a way to just disable a non built in app so I can...

I have an LG V30 Model VS996 (US model) that I obtained from a Verizon store. Has anyone figured out how to unlock the bootloader and/or obtain root?

I found in developer options where I can disable updates. But my phone already downloaded an update and is constantly prompting me to update. I downloaded cache wiper and wiped the cache partition and that didn't fix the problem.

Ok, I have fastboot and adb working on my linux mint host. Can someone explain to me how to install ota updates on a rooted pixel phone? I tried installing it via the zip using twrp and that didn't work. It just unrooted my phone so I had to reroot it. I tried using Flashfire and...

I am attempting to follow instructions on page... https://forum.xda-developers.com/v20/development/ls997vs995h910-dirtysanta-bootloader-t3519410 I am using a Linux host to do this. If I type adb devices, it returns the device ID so my computer sees the phone. I then type in one console...

Does anyone have any ideas how to find why my phone is rebooting randomly? I'll check it periodically and then it will have a bar stating it's starting. Then my launcher loads and no icons and I need to wait a minute. I don't know exactly what's going on. It appears the phone is randomly...

Ok, I am pulling my hair out. I only have about a gig of internal space left. I put in a few different SD cards... two are 32 GB and one is 64 GB. I can only move a few apps to the SD Card and then I get a message stating "Not enough storage space." I know I'm not out of space. I only moved...

I just bought this phone a few days ago (Google pixel.). I'm a tinkerer. (My wife is always telling me to stop tinkering with the phone.). First thing I did when I got home is unlock the bootloader using depixel8. After that, I used Kingo root to root the phone. I am not running any custom...

I really like a tidy phone. I like everything in one spot. I know I can create app links on the desktop. But i typically dont create any app links on my desktop. Does anyone know of a way or a replacement app drawer that would allow me to create Web link shortcuts in the app drawer. Even...

I can't figure out what I'm doing wrong. The last time, how I loaded it was I installed the factory rom. Then I rooted it. (I paid one click root to do it the right way.) I then found a debloated rom and reimaged it without the bloat. After that, it was debloated but unrooted. So, I rooted...

I've been having a hard time getting my phone to have good battery life and be stable. I've rooted and unrooted it a few times over the last few months. I re-rooted it yesterday and I think I have it setup to where the battery life is really good. My phone has been unplugged for about 6 hours...

Same as the title. I would like AOSP. I believe this would require an unlocked bootloader. I'm pretty sure even with mine rooted, the bootloader is still locked.

I have a Samsung Galaxy S7 that I've recently rooted. I've partitioned an sd card with ext2 and fat32 partitions like a tutorial told me. I then created the scripts with the link2sd app and the app worked there and created the script and rebooted the phone. If I attempt to link an app to the...

I am trying to unroot my phone. I have a US version of G930A. Sammobile has every county except the USA. I found G930AATT1APB5_User_Binary.zip which has AP_G930AUCU1APB5_CL7193387_QB8719495_REV02_user_low_ship_MULTI_CERT.tar, the BL, CP and CSC file in it. I try to flash it using Odin3, and...

OK, I have an att galaxy s7 g930a rooted phone. If imy out and about and not by an outlet, my battery is dead by around 6 pm. I'm not really a power user. Immediately looking at better battery stats which it says since boot, system used 24%, and next is wake lock 6%, then kk launcher at 4%...

OK, last night I rooted my g930a snapdragon phone. I am really not a power root user. Just like some of the conveniences. Previous phones I rooted, I could load power toggles and toggle the mobile data from the home screen so when I am not using mobile data, I can turn it off so some rogue...

I've been hunting a way to do it since I got the phone a few months ago. I didn't figure out how to do it myself. I paid one click root to do it. The "one click root" method didn't work but he used a remote desktop tool and downloaded a whole bunch of files to my pc and rooted it manually. I...

I have a Galaxy S7 (non edge) on AT&T. I enabled developer options. I notice in developer options, I have an option for OEM unlock. When I goggle what that option is for, it is to allow to unlock the bootloader. I found a command "fastboot oem unlock" I am trying to unlock the bootloader...
