Thanks this worked great!

Minor change to step 5.... after you type in net.tethering.noprovisioning the next step you have to do is set it to TRUE.

also i did not do step 7 & 8 and tether works fine.
Did it this same way. On Verizon network with 20 version of Q 19.3 magisk and twrp 3.3.0 installed. All of you are crazy great. I don't know how you do this but I am a long time follower and fan and love this phone. ( Thinking of the fold though just cuz)

Ah cool, I got rid of them and reinstalled the modules but no go. :( not sure what I'm doing wrong.
After you deleted them, did you reboot and make sure they were gone? If so, then do you have twrp on your device? If so, you can delete them with the twrp file manager. Which magisk version are you using?

Yeah after I reboot they were all gone. I can't get twrp to work as it will not de-encrypt the partition. I have the newest version of magisk. and on 20 build of ota

It looks like your running the canary version of magisk manager vs the stable 7.3.2 (224) version which could be causing some compatibility issues. Have you tried removing your screen lock before entering twrp so it decrypts your data?

So you think I should move to the stable one? Yeah I removed lock screen. However if I decrypt I will need to install fresh and reset, I was really hoping to avoid that step.

Yes, remove the canary version of magisk manager, reboot then use the stable magisk manager. Why would you need to reset anything in twrp? It's just your data partition that twrp will decrypt, but that's not going to wipe anything. Not sure I'm understanding what your meaning :confused:

I've had no problems rooting, but I keep getting the 'read only filesystem' error. iirc when I updated to Android 9, the Canary build fixed this problem. I've tried both stable and Canary Magisk builds, multiple dirty flashes, and finally a clean.

Any help would be nice..

Thanks!

Partially.. I want to modify some of the system UI sounds. I usually root, rename the sounds I want to change, then drop in the sounds I want named to the default name. Ex. Dock.ogg or Lock.ogg.

If there is a better way to do this please share.

Thanks!
Unless I missed something... modifying sounds settings does not require root.

1) Connect phone to your PC, drag and drop files into the various folders on your phone (ie: Notifications, Alarms, Ringtones).
2) On your phone select Settings -> Sound -> Advanced settings. Modify to your hearts content

Android is no crApple and not locked down like Fort Knox. It is all about customization to one's personal preference...

It's not the settings, it's the actual sounds. The system sounds: lock, unlock, touch etc.. They are located here
/system/media/audio/UI

There is not an option that I'm aware of in the standard settings menu that lets you change these sounds. And from what I can gather, the events are coded to specific sound file names: Lock event triggers Lock.ogg. That's why I need to mount the system rw so I can replace specific sounds with my own, that are named appropriately.

I'm sure there is a work around by some of the very smart people in the magisk thread. From what I've read, TJW will need to update magisk to allow r/w to our root partitions.

FWIW, I just updated to 10 and rooted - I was also running ElementalX kernel. All I did was restore my images with stable Magisk Manager (I did NOT do a complete removal, and still running ElementalX), rebooted, downloaded and took the OTA (I did not flash the full image like I normally do), rebooted, booted TWRP and flashed the lasted Stable Magisk 19.3, no errors, rooted and operational. All my root apps I use are running fine so far (button mapper, adaway, Ti, etc). Haven't tested Root Explorer write access though, because I never need it on this device. This was a total dirty OTA flash through the system. I'm working just fine.
