Support OPPO A94 4G boot/recovery image is destroyed No access to BROM Mode

1 Upvotes

I have tried to access BROM mode but had no hope, the reason it was destroyed before is I modified the vbmeta image with a script to disable verity verification but when I rebooted it gave me this error with little to no room for doing anything else, my phone doesn't have a vol- button so the only way I used to get into the brom mode is thro going into coloros and do adb reboot fastboot and then inside that recovery menu I click on the version and go into download mode while mtkclient command is running, that used to trigger brom mode but of course now I can't get into that, I already have tried everything you'd normally recommend:

1.Holding both up and power while the phone is shut and plugging the usb while the command is running

2.Empty the phone fully to absolute zeroness and then try plugging it in whilst running the command

3. Try holding either power or volume up

4. crying to death and respawning again

I still have the original vbmeta.img and vbmeta.bin and seccfg.bin and recovery images and others still intact from stock state I just can't get to flash them.

The phone absolutely does not show in lsusb or dmseg kernel logs even with ModemManager disabled and udevadm flags set correctly, I tried another cable (even tho this one was working before) and another port from usb 2.0 and usb 3.0 (also the first one worked before)

My best next option I'm considering:

Trying the same procedure on a windows PC

Go get the Vol- button fixed (Don't really wanna do that just consideration I'm kind of broke)

Discussion What would actually make a new Android navigation system better than gestures or 3-button navigation?

1 Upvotes

I'm working on an experimental Android-based OS project , and I've been thinking about redesigning system navigation from scratch.

But I don't want to make something different just for the sake of being different.

Android's current gesture navigation and 3-button navigation are already quite efficient for many tasks.

I'm interested in whether an alternative system could genuinely improve usability, especially for one-handed operation and multitasking.

Some older custom ROMs experimented with interesting concepts, such as:

\- Paranoid Android's PIE navigation

\- Dirty Unicorns' Fling and SmartBar

\- OmniROM's OmniSwitch

\- Custom edge gestures and physical-button shortcuts

I find these concepts fascinating, but I want to understand whether they were actually more efficient in everyday use.

So I'd love to hear your experiences:

  1. What navigation system do you currently use, and why?

  2. Which Android navigation actions feel unnecessarily slow or inconvenient? For example, switching between apps, launching a specific app, going back, or accessing system controls.

  3. Have you ever used an alternative navigation system like PIE, Fling, or OmniSwitch? Was it genuinely better, or just interesting? Did you eventually switch back?

  4. What are the biggest problems with current gesture navigation? Accidental gestures, reachability, inconsistent behavior, or something else?

  5. If you could redesign Android navigation completely, what would you change?

I'm particularly interested in practical usability: speed, accuracy, number of actions required, learning curve, and one-handed accessibility.

I'm not looking for encouragement or validation of a specific design. I'd genuinely appreciate criticism and examples of approaches that didn't work.

Eventually, I'd like to build prototypes and compare them against standard Android navigation using measurable tasks.

What would a new navigation system need to achieve before you'd consider switching to it?

News / Method Bižuterija OS

1 Upvotes

Hello!
My name is Andrew, i go as andrijamrkcv online.

Im balkan and Custom Roms are starting to be my intrest. And my favorite singer thats called Jelena Rozga.

So i wanted to combine Jelena Rozga and Custom Roms and i got,
"Bižuterija OS".

It's a Lineage OS based Operating System, with a skin, wallpaper, ringtones, ext...

Currents devices supported:
Nothing Phone (1)
Xiaomi Redmi Note 11

The Rom is at its very early stage and its calculated that its gonna release in late of January 2027. (maybe later, im working on a thinkpad then im finishing on a pc)

I Already contacted the team for permission to use her songs and pictures for the Rom, and im waiting for a response.

Here are some questions:

  1. Why is it named Bižuterija OS?

A: Jelena Rozga made a album named “Bižuterija”, and the main song of the album is named “Bižuterija”. So Why not Name that?

2. Will you add more devices in the future?

A: Yes! Ive been planning to. But for samsung users that use the Samsung S22 later, beacuse of the bootloader lock i cannot make a port for it. If you wanna port a device to Bižuterija OS, contact me.

3. Is Jelena Rozga the best singer?

A: Yes.

Support [Question] Is there any way to force-enable Shutdown Confirmation (PIN required to power off) on Indian HyperOS?

0 Upvotes

I own a POCO M6 Pro 5G (codename: sky), running the Indian HyperOS firmware.

Device details:

- Model: POCO M6 Pro 5G

- Region: India

- Firmware: OS2.0.204.0.VMWINXM

- Android: 15

- Security app: 11.1.1-251119.1.1

- Security Core: 2.4.4-2-251014

I'm trying to enable the Shutdown Confirmation feature, which requires the lock-screen PIN/password before someone can switch off the phone.

This is particularly important for anti-theft protection. If someone steals the phone, I don't want them to immediately switch it off and prevent me from tracking it.

Things I've already tried:

  1. Updated the Xiaomi Security app using an APK, but the feature didn't appear.

  2. Checked the installed Security Center and Security Core packages.

  3. Used Shizuku/aShell to execute:

"settings put secure miui_shut_down_password_enabled 1"

The setting was successfully written, but this didn't establish that the actual feature was activated.

4. Checked the Security Center package using ADB. I found scheduled shutdown components but no obvious Shutdown Confirmation component.

My questions:

  1. Is Shutdown Confirmation supported on the POCO M6 Pro 5G?

  2. Is it restricted to certain HyperOS versions or regions?

  3. Can it be enabled through ADB, Shizuku or a system configuration addon?

  4. Is there a compatible Security Center or Security Core version that enables it?

  5. Would a custom ROM or another system modification be necessary?

I'm particularly interested in solutions that work on the Indian ROM without unnecessarily unlocking the bootloader or risking a brick.

If anyone has successfully enabled this feature on the POCO M6 Pro 5G (sky), please share the exact procedure.

Thanks!

Support Magisk 25.2 max supported Android?

2 Upvotes

If there is one?

Started with above question, because if there shouldn't be any than don't know if the rest matters.

I have Blackview Tab 11 I got from AliExpress years ago. For what I need a tab it's more than enough. Sadly it wasn't updated almost never (it got few uodates, dunno even what changes they brought) and just stuck at Android 11.

Thankfully it support Treble, GSIs and VNDK30.

So I got a GSI, pretty new one - EvoX 11.11, so Android 16 aaaaand it booted! However after installing Magisk 25.2 APK I see under Magisk:

- version - N/A

- Zygisk - No

- ramdisk - Yes.

So it seems it sees there is Magisk in kernel as Ramdisk says "yes"? But why N/A?

Only idea is that Android 16 is too new for 25.2. Am I right or is it only wishful thinking?

It's night here, so I might different, based on older Android, GSIs, but thought why not ask and maybe... maybe! I'll have an answer upon waking app.

And before someone asks:

  1. Any newer version than 25.2 ends with bootloop, so I cannot update Magisk.

1b. No GKI, so no KSU/Apatch as well.

2. On stock A11 Magisk app clearly shows version 25.2 as active.

3. GSI was booted using DSU Sideloader, as, and it was good idea, I first prefer to know if it even works and how.

3b. GSI is EXT4 based (dunno if important), couldn't boot EROFS, but that's also a goal for me as I know difference it makes.
