Introduction - Introductions

Hello everyone, My name is Boris. I've been on the forum from time to time to look up advice with unlocking bootloaders, installing custom recoveries, rooting/unrooting, and installing custom ROM's.
I have a Oneplus 6T that has an unlocked bootloader running Oxygen OS 10.3.12. I figured I join up and see what I can contribute since I've used this forum so much to get great info, advice, and files from other users. I really appreciate what the developers and enthusiasts do here because this resource has helped me many times with not only my current device but previous devices that I've owned in the past.
My main reason for being here recently is because I haven't been able to successfully disable dm-verity/AVB or force encryption for the purpose of installing kali nethunter. Im trying to get that resolved and if and when I do Ill post all the info so that others with the OP6T can do the same.
IT stuff Im familiar with and have amateur experience in is Windows, Kali Linux, Monjaro Linux, Debian, Ubuntu, Networking (Including Cisco training on ITPro TV), a bit of Active Directory experience, I'm a python beginner (Took a python scripting class at my college last semester), a bit of bash/zsh scripting, computer hardware, as well as a few other things.

[Q] Nokia Lumia 930 Tools?

Hi guys,
I just converted to Windows phone platform as I previously used a LG G3 Andorid device. I used xda developers alot to Mod my device such as Root Access, Unlock Bootloader, Custom Recovery and install Roms and Kernels.
My question is - Is there the same sort of things for the Windows phone? This forum for Windows 8 isn't as straight forward due to different devices that are all in the one forum " Windows Phone 8 Development and Hacking "..
Could someone point me in the right direction where I may use some developer tools to unlock bootloader etc or install kernels to MOD my Lumia 930? Or is there such thing?
Hope I can get a response...
Thanks in Advanced!
Anything? These threas doesn't get acknowledged much as androids

It's not about the attention these forums get, it's more about all the guys are literally tired answering questions like these ( no pun intended ) .
So basically for now it's a "NO" for all your questions, you can't unlock ( i mean filesystem access ) your phone, and surely can't modify the bootloader, in this aspect WP is not like Android, it's focused on security ( enterprise in mind ).
For more on your question please refer to this thread > The first thread in "Windows Phone 8 Development and Hacking, literally "
Also, as per the rules, please don't bump your thread more than once per 24 hours. 12 hours may seem like a long time to wait for an answer but it's still annoying when people do that. The WP community is a lot smaller than the Android community. On the other hand, as VSparxx points out, you could have had your answer easily with a little research. Currently, hacks for WP8 devices without SD cards are extremely limited. Samsung and Huawei have sort-of-custom ROMs (only limited modifications possible); HTC and Nokia don't even have that.

I'm having problems with kernel development

Hello everyone, I'll start by introducing myself before presenting my questions and information that I think is necessary to recognize the situation. My name is Flavia. I'm a not very experienced and self-taught developer, I've never used xda and this is my first time doing a POST, I come here to ask for help for the developers, be it a beginner or an experiment, I've been trying to compile the kernel for Moto e5 (Nora) and I have had problems during compilation. I'm pretty sure it's due to lack of kernel drivers, camera drivers and f2fs format support, I can not say for sure, because I'm feeling a bit intimidated by this community, but based on the mistakes I can claim to be that. I would like you to help me solve the problems so we can evolve as a community and group.

Kernel already exists on Motorola Mobility Github, why do you need kernel? https://github.com/MotorolaMobilityLLC/kernel-msm/tree/oreo-8.0.0-release-nr
The only problem we have on Nora is the lack of Vendor files. Vendor takes alot of times since you have to type in every vendor file by file. Maybe when @CodyF86 releases the vendor files for Play, we will hopefully have it work on Nora. And with @MotoJunkie01 banned i don't think we will see any more progress since he actually works at Moto Mobility. Kinda sad that the people at XDA banned him..

Steps for installing Lineage on new device?

I just got the A71 and instead of tweaking One UI i want to go straight to Lineage. The thing is i come from iPhone and i don't understand anything about flashing Androids. I have an IT background though, i'm a web dev and i've flashed my Nintendo Wii several times. I know this is totally different but i mean i understand tech and i'm cautious, i'm not a Karen (?
That said, i've read this guide but i don't know how nor in which step to load the Lineage ROM.
If someone can clarify me the updated steps for achieving that, i'll appreciate it and bet that other forum lurkers will too.
Thanks in advance!
(sorry for my english)

Vaneyen Intro

Hi, I'm Vaneyen, from Saskatoon, Saskatchewan. I have lots of Andriod devices, and have meddled with rooting a little bit, but am not yet entirely comfortable with risking the brick. However, I am deeply interested in Hacking, which simply means "making My devices work the way I want them to." I have (with the help of Youtube bloggers) hacked Keurig coffee machines, so now it's time to get my Android devices working the way I want them to!
Hi Vaneyen and welcome to XDA! You came with experience to the right place for modding, flashing, development, etc.!
Cheers

Thank you, galaxys.
I have an Android TV box I'm looking to root, but I'm unclear of one thing. I've learned (thank you 3mel!) that the process will likely involve:
1) unlocking the bootloader (if needed),
2) flashing the correct TWRP recovery (for that series of boxes),
3) flashing magisk 21.4 in TWRP and
4) installing magisk apk.
Is there a tutorial on the site aimed at guiding someone through the process of determining the correct process for each of these steps? I've learned that my box in question has an Amlogic p212, but is that enough to go on?
Thanks for the welcome!

First post in the correct forum...
Seems like you posted good details in June in those forums.
You can bump your last post there and maybe someone will respond. Any of tutorial should be specific to your device if one exists....
I wonder if it is possible to install root rights on Apple hardware.

Good question, but I have no idea where to ask it. You may get good results if you google "how to root ios iphone" - I just did, and there are a few promising hits in there.

Hello, basic introduction

My name says it all, 65 and hopefully had figured that I had learned all the OS and software that I needed to get by with. Started with DOS and now looking into rooting and flashing A50 Samsung so I'm on another learning curve, Kodi and sideloading was my last adventure, so looking for help and patience trying to get a basic understanding of how to do this.
Thanks for the help.
