I would assume it's in the kernel or something. Make sure there aren't any extra partitions. It shouldn't have done any hardware damage. It has to be something not set straight in Odin. There are only a select number of partitions actually touched by Odin.
So one would need to find out what other partitions get touched or modded. I have restored before Kali and had a bunch of partition errors I assume was due to locked bootloader but even after restore still had those errors. Eventually a total format and restore cleared them. But your unlocked bl and modifiable kernel makes it different than my case

I made a pit file and flashed this pit through odin. But no change, I think pit file does re-partition in phone. Any other way to totally clear all of the partitions and reinstall all of the drivers including touch drivers ?
You tried andrax instead installs on top of android as a normal app needs unlocked bootloader and root to full work but has all the same tools as kali nearly and few it doesn't
Nethunter and Andrax need custom kernel to suppot monitor mode usb wifi card, someone know what kernel i should use for that for G950f? I really need it but dont have PCto compile it myself, please if someone have kernel with a drivers for rtl8812au for s8. Thank you

Any way to install either andrax or nethunter on a S9 g960u rooted locked bootloader?
Having some issues with andrax, just wants to keep installing things on my phone. this is my first time using it.
It always has to install stuff it's downloading all the Linux apps , or you can install termux and so it via that too
Hello i have successfully instead twrp and Magisk on android S9+ pie before but not 100% sure on how todo android 10 version as there isn't much available on the net or YouTube.

I think it's not possible yet at this point. The software is too young and we have to wait the developers do their thing.
P.s.: me either I'm waiting the root of android 10, though the software is very better than Pie

Besides partition resizing and flashing GSI (as described on official developer website), is there any other steps required for it to boot successfully?
I've tried flashing the smaller official GSI without GMS, but it is not booting at all. Can't figure out the cause yet.
I even repartioned my phone and can't get any GSI working. Someone did open a ticket with phhusson here however:

AVB should not bother on Pixel 1 if bootloader is unlocked, especially if any custom ROM can be flashed without problem. I think it's probably SELinux-related issue, maybe set to permissive could help. (I've not tried)

Interesting, though I don't know how we would set SELinux to permissive without booting first, maybe we'd need a kernel to set it for us? I dunno, this whole thing is really confusing.

Here's a clue:
According to this certain audio libraries are needed to boot the quack GSI so maybe its the same for 11?

I gave that a look and even tried it, its missing the libeffectsconfig.so file, yet I couldn't add it because /system is not mountable in twrp. We need another way.
Google has released the final build for android 11, will there be a port for the Pixel?
Deleted.
I was wondering if anyone knew about the partition schemes and whether there is enough room on the boot image to install custom recovery on the P4a?
The Pixel 3A did not have enough room on the RAM disk on the boot image. So installing TWRP, even a stripped down version compressed, on the P3a was a no-go.
Custom recovery was not necessary on the P3a. Just having and unlocked bootloader and root via Magisk gives a lot of options including custom ROMs.
However, I'm still curious if custom recovery will ever come to the P4a?

I know, it looks like TWRP has been doing a long slow death spiral.
We have TWRP on Android 10 for the Pixel C tablet. But of course among other things, there's no A/B partitions and Google abandoned support for the device a while ago.
Might be a while, pixel 3+ devices haven't had a 100% working TWRP for a long time.
They can still sideload ROMs and patch boot images with adb/fastboot
I'll miss this moving on from my 2xl. Nice to flash and update things without needing a PC

Someone correct me if I am wrong but there are no factory images yet for the 4a so no rooting with Magisk until then?
Is it at least possible to unlock the bootloader right away? Is that just standard fastboot ADB procedure or is there something Pixel specific(first one)

I can't find them either.
Isn't Android 11 going to make it more difficult to hide root anymore? I am tempted to root, but heard (or read) somewhere that with android 11 that it may not be worth it as any app (or something like that) will be able to see and not work.
This is the first phone I've owned that I think I'll be satisfied with stock. Ad guard does everything I need as ad away did. And it doesn't need root. Everything is fast! Now I don't have to hack Google pay.

Hi all, I hope this isn't a thread that has already been posted... I found it interesting that there is no TWRP or any custom recovery for Pixel 7/7 Pro. I understand it's not needed to flash different rom's such as Paranoid Android or Spark OS but I figure it would be helpful no? My prior device was a iPhone 12, haven't run a rooted android since my Galaxy s4 way back in the day. Is this something somebody is actively pursuing or no as it's not needed? Curious on what the situation is with this, loving my p7 pro. Cheers!
TWRP has been nearly an entire Android version behind for awhile now so I haven't been able to use it on my last couple phones. I believe it is still being worked on but since it's been so far behind due to the changes to Android and it's migration to ramdisk installation it's mostly fallen out of use sadly. I do miss it sometimes as well.

No, its useless. Pixel devices have unlocked bootloaders and support fastboot, therefore recovery is not needed.
Well, a lot of old and new Samsung phones and tablets are running TWRP and root. Yes, with Android 13. Is it strictly because there is that A and B split thing going on ? Personally I have not written to my B partition in many months if ever.
Can there be a lesson learned from that ?

I don't know about that. It may not be needed but the advantages are profoundly easier than having to learn terminal commands
Also you can't do flashes and restores without a PC whereas when we had active working custom recovery it could be done anywhere at anytime.

Exactly! I used to do a complete backup, periodically. One day I screwed something up playing around at work, went to Recover and flashed my backup. Fixed it in a few minutes
Yeah it would be nice to have for sure
Same here, a nice custom recovery would be sweet. If I had any clue how to build one I would be all over it.

Is it even possible to do a nandroid backup anymore with the changes to Android filesystems and permissions? I mean you can't even flash a full firmware package in fastboot anymore, part of it has to be done from fastbootd.

The A/B system is not for power users who manually flash things. It's so that updates for the 99% who use their phones normally can be done in the background. It also adds a failsafe in case one slot gets corrupted since it will automatically boot the other slot after so many failures. Previously such a failure would be an automatic brick.
Also, I think most of us power users are using the A/B system normally at this point too. You have to go out of your way to not flash an update to the other slot, all the defaults do.

TWRP is a big miss for me. Nandroid Backups and phone based file explorer without having to boot to Android were just two of the numerous features I used regularly. To say it would be useless is ridiculous.
I for one would be very happy to have it make an appearance on the Pixel 7 Pro. I'm not holding my breath though, the Pixel 6 and 6 Pro still don't have it I believe.
I've used TWRP in the past. I've never understood the attraction.
Even with A/B a recovery is useful, but why would I want to play with volume buttons to express my wishes?
Just take a stock recovery, patch adbd to be rooted, patch the kernel to be permissive, done.

Ok. You're doing backups to a USB flash drive? Fair enough.
But, since this thread is questioning whether any custom recovery is in development wouldn't it be helpful if someone knocked off at least a custom recovery to the extent that I mentioned?

No, doing backups to internal storage, actually. How am I going to access a USB flash drive with a telephone if I’m sitting at a friend’s house and something gets corrupted, phone won’t boot, and I have to reboot to recovery where I can access an internal back up? Which cannot be done with stock recovery.
