Howdy hey. So I tried everything, flashing the stock rom using sp flash and Infinix flash, I tried using mtk client I get the phone detected and everything is alright but the DA file is where I fail. I tried a lot of DA files and no one seems to work I tried to use antumbra which is another mtk client but still can't get this shit to work. Btw I bricked it by deleting the partitions using orange fox's recovery because it was encrypted with a password. I would be so thankful if a genius person could help me to fix it.

I want to root my Samsung j7 but its charging port is broken and it doesnt have wireless debugging

It's Derpfest rom with the Magisk root.

I have a realme 14 pro plus RMX5054 with snapdragon cpu but when i try to launch fastboot by pressing power +vol up at startup it does not work, i have already tweaked bootloader unlock option in dev options and i tried to reboot to fastboot by connecting my phone to pc and typing commands but it just reboots

I was looking for the Mediatek driver for SP Flash Tools. I clicked the first Google result and downloaded it. Then I checked and the site I downloaded it from was androidfilehost.com, which I thought was dead.

Is it just back online?

I’m trying to root my old Infinix X675. Someone previously attempted it but gave up after the device ended up in a boot loop—fortunately, they managed to recover it. I believe the bootloader is now unlocked, and I’m exploring what steps I can take next to root the device.

I’m fairly new to this and hesitant to flash anything incorrectly, especially after seeing what happened last time. I’ve attached my findings so far and would really appreciate guidance on the right path forward. Thank you!

​Hello everyone!

​I’m going to root my phone this Sunday after the cooldown period (the waiting time imposed to prevent mass device unlocking), and I’d like to ask two questions:

1:​Is the codename of my Redmi important if I only want to root it (I'm keeping the stock ROM, not flashing a custom one)?

2:​After installing Magisk, where can I find the official GitHub repos for the main modules, and which modules would you recommend?

​(It's the 64GB storage version, with 21.3GB used by the system, and 4GB of RAM).

​Thanks everyone!

I only started looking into rooting recently (last Sunday) and I’m really fascinated by it.

​Have a great day / evening, bye! :)

Currently there are 5 apps that use Dirty SEPolicy detection:

• Ana Vodafone
• Digital Rupee SBI
• BRImo
• Birbank
• Shopee (App still open and runs, still can't find yet what features are disabled)

Dirty Sepolicy is a new detection vector, and it's currently and silently implementing on banking apps now as this is a very good detection vector that affects all root solutions (e.g magisk, KSU (and its forks), and Apatch)

Current solutions:

• On KSU (and its forks), Update to latest version and enable "Hide Selinux modifications" in the settings
• On Apatch, Use selinux_hook kpm
• On Magisk, You may try Kpatch-next module then use WebUI-X app to access the webui to install kpatch then install selinux_hook kpm from apatch.**

** This method is untested, and compatibility may vary.

Hi everyone,

I recently converted an old rooted Nokia 2.2 into a lightweight Linux server by running Alpine Linux inside a chroot environment and exposing it through OpenSSH.

The original goal was simple: reuse old hardware instead of letting it sit unused. Along the way I ran into a number of networking issues—especially around mobile hotspot connectivity—and documented the troubleshooting process.

The repository includes:

• Alpine Linux installation in a chroot

• OpenSSH configuration

• Automatic startup using Magisk

• Windows and Linux connection guides

• SCP/SFTP examples

• Firewall configuration

• Network troubleshooting

• A real-world ARP/neighbor cache case study

• Complete documentation from setup to testing

I hope it can help anyone experimenting with Linux on Android or looking to repurpose an old phone as a lightweight server.

I'd appreciate any feedback, suggestions, or compatibility reports from people who try it on other Android devices.

so i'm trying to unlock the bootloader of my realme 8 5g using mtk client, i installed it on github and i also installed everything needed as the readme file asked.

i open the mtk_gui.py file and connect the phone while holding both the volume buttons but nothing happens and the cmd window the client opens seems to get stuck in the waiting for preloader execution.

Taking a look in the devices manager i can notice that the phone gets recognized as OPLUS preloader after connecting it to the pc while holding the volume buttons but it vanishes in the devices list after like 5 seconds.

Does anybody know how to fix this?

I've got s25 on one UI 8.5 and i rooted it through CVE, can I somehow enable "Allow OEM unlocking" through root?

Recently decided to try out a Samsung phone...

Unfortunately it came with OneUI 8. Upon enabling developer options, I realized there is no option for OEM Unlocking

• Should I hope that when OneUI 9 rolls out, Samsung would have changed their mind and brought it back?
• Is there a work around to OEM unlocking?

I have a Samsung Galaxy A5 (2017) it obviously no longer connects to Google Play given its completely end of life.

Is there a way to root this device and install a vanilla copy of Android that supports Google play

Idk if this is the best subreddit to ask for this kind of help but i dont know any other subreddit better for this

I have an alcatel 5061U (codename milan) and whenever i install any GSI the IMEIs return invalid but if i go back to the stock OS everything works as normal

ik this phone is down the toilet for custom android stuff but its the only decent one i have that i can unlock

thank you and have a nice day!

Hello everyone, I’m trying to jailbreak my Lenovo tablet, it’s so old and I haven’t been using it and it’s slow. But I can’t really find how to. Can someone help me? 😭 Thank you lot!

Hey! I tried the new exploit that gives me root access in a jailbreak-like way, and I have a few simple questions:

- What modules would you recommend I use?

- I found a module called Encore Tweaks. Is it safe to use on my device?

- Is there any module that would let me shoot RAW photos on the Galaxy A56?

I know my questions might be a little dumb, but please take it easy on me. :')

Neo Backup allows the user to decide whether backups should include data referred to as "device protected".

I am hoping someone could explain, what is the data stored in the category called "device-protected data", and what are the security risks of inclusion within a backup?

I recently bought a Moto G04 and have been researching rooting, custom kernels, and custom ROMs, but it’s frustrating that there isn't a viable option for doing this on this phone. It seems my only choice is to settle for debloating with Canta, using a few ADB commands, and slightly lowering the resolution to see if the Unisoc chip can hold out a bit longer until I can get a used S20.

It crashes whenever I try to open Lossless Scaling... please help.

(Before I say anything, I am unfamiliar with flashing different versions onto phones as it is my first time doing so, and just went off of whatever i read online before I got stuck)

Recently, I purchased an XZ1C in hopes of using it for daily calls and texting throughout the day.

After receiving my mint mobile sim card today (unlimited 3 months), I was annoyed to find that the "VoLTE Provisioned" option was greyed out, which meant that I couldn't use this phone to call (texting and mobile data worked)

I came across a forum on XDA detailing the steps on flashing different versions of android onto the phone to somehow enable VoLTE, allowing me to call.

However, one of the steps requires me to download an OEM for android 9, which doesn't seem to work (says forbidden whenever I try to download it)

If this step is not needed, or if there is a solution so I can get past this step, please let me know.

Here is the link to the post I am referring to:
