I appreciate your response, I have tried the fastboot method but it gives a response that bootloader can't be remotely unlocked, no information regarding how to root it on the internet, the phone is blackview oscal c20 pro

If the vendor doesn't allow unlock the bootloader you can't, unfortunately it's a device not so popular, and the processor being Unisoc, difficults an unauthorized procedure as they're not many tools available to try with. About root it, is not recommendable to root a device it's bootloader can't be unlocked, and this is in the theory the device can, a thing that I don't think, unfortunately. Anyway, said this, keep trying with all the fastboot commands you can find, to fully fulfill the first mandatory step.

Not sure what exactly mean these blocks, but assuming that are bootloader/preloader partitions, potentially, you can.

Unfortunately I need back the ability to make in-app purchases through google (I lived happily with lineageOS+microG for the last few years), but I want to keep google apps to the absolute minimum that is necessary. How do I do that? I have no idea what I'm doing on a technical level, I just blindly follow tutorials.
I tried to install "lineage for microG" (https://download.lineage.microg.org/FP3/) and openGapps pico on top of that, but I just got an error that the android version is not compatible.
I have a Fairphone 3
Any help is much appreciated!

LOS 18.1 it`s based on Android 11, and LOS 19.1 it`s based in Android 12, so if it is related to the Android version, you just need to download the right version for you.

Anyway, did you check if these ROMs, like the name suggest, don`t come with Google apps included, if it is the case, won`t be a good idea, flashing a version of Google apps, on the top of a different version. It could be the case too, that these ROMs version, don`t include google apps, but, it is recommended to flash only microG, on the top of them. Just guessing because the name given to the files.

I need information on how to buy a good aftermarket battery.

I had expected to find a Guide or a Tutorial or at least a forum discussion, but I did not find anything on XDA-Developers or with internet search. My phones are older models, and I see lots of aftermarket brands on Amazon. I have tried eBay and found that those "new" battteries have been salvaged from used phones.

Is there a seller that can be trusted for good, new, non-OEM replacement batteries? Thanks very much for your help!

good morning , evening , night ; when someone has time , i have a htc one M9 att , Android7 , twrp , superSu , super cid , s-off , firmware official , RR-N-v5.8.0-20170106 , v.main 4.30.617.12 , v.bootloader 1.0.0 , mid OPJA1100 ;
and i cannot get a data (att) connection.
tried adding att apns in settings/data/apns
without luck. added apns and hit "save" even though there is the message when opening the apns , "this user has no access to apn settings.
in /system/etc i found file = "apns-conf.xml" which shows me virizon , t-mobile ; all but ATT.
could someone/anyone post an ATT apns-conf.xml file?
if that would even work.
or perhaps there is something in the secret dialer codes i need to edit?

Why does the MatLog app command for permission give this error? It's the code given by the app. I'm on Project Elixir 2.1 on Poco X3 Pro (vayu) which has random restart errors. I want to find out why. (Please ignore the first error, I made an unnecessary space in the beginning)

Also, there is no option to ask a new question. That's why I'm posting here.

I* do0nt know the details of what you are trying to achieve, but wha5t I* d0 see is that you are mixing fastboot with adb. They are not the same.

Normally when I use ADB, I first have to connect to the device before I issue commands.

Thanks for the reply..

I want to report a bug in the rom I've installed. For that, I need system logs. I'm trying to get it. And the app (recommended by the rom author) for it requires this specific permission.

again, the details aren't for me.

Have you tried running adb devices before you issue the ADB command? As I said, I n0ortmally issue an adb connect before I issue ADB commands.

Hello there. I have a 4G LTE Dongle made by the company Tukzer.
Here's the link of the device: https://amzn.eu/d/2xkQfii

It has Qualcomm MSM8916 chipset and is running some form of android.
Here's the build.prop file: https://ctxt.io/2/AAAQKpXXFw

I've found hidden link that shows all the system files and also gives terminal access with root privileges. (Attached images below)

I just want to know if it's possible at all to change/lock 4G bands now that we have this extra access to the device config files.

Iam a newbie. just started learning java, android file system/kernel. If someone could help with this, it would be amazing. Also, I have found some interesting files at vendor/modemConfig/ location.
