xFSTK downloader for Intel processors - General Topics

Hi,
I was just wondering if there is any forum specific for xFSTK?
Lots of Android devices have an Intel processor and considering the hugh number of different types of Intel processors it might be worth to have a forum specific for xFSTK, whatever the target processor in the device and whatever the platform xFSTK is running on (Win PC, Linux, Mac).
I'm also asking this because I have a post about xFSTK (see link) but, considering the post is related to an old device, it will probably not get any response while the error(s) in the xFSTK log may also appear with other devices and Intel processors.
Thanks in advance

Intel Atom Z3560 (Moorefield) - Not Flashing Correctly
Hi, I got an old Asus Android S 8.0 Z580CA tablet with above mentioned processor. The bootloader is bricked, so I got a black screen all the time. However, xFSTK downloader running on my Win7 PC seems to communicate with the tablet over USB...
forum.xda-developers.com

Good question. I have found your message because I have the same in mind. What I'm interested in where is the latest and greatest xFSTK is located. So far I found this link: https://github.com/edison-fw/xFSTK/. I don't know if this one is anyhow diverged from the windows versions.

I'm wondering if i can installl windows or linux on the phone using xfstk?

How to port libs to Android x86

Hi! Take a look at this situation: I have an Android x86 tablet (model Multilaser M7i Nb190) Intel, Android 4.4, but the internal emmc memory i'snt working anymore, but the rest of the device still 'works', Generic Android x86 boot up, even Ubuntu n' ZorinOS Lite, but I can go after setup screen because there's no touchscreen support for my device, I have the original rom, but the structure of the device rom and of the Android x86.iso seems to be different. How to port the device drivers (libs) to the Android x86 generic.iso rom? I have version of Android x86 4.4, its better to use it because it is the same version of the device rom (in general)? Thanks for any help. ... And why xda app still giving network error after trying to upload an image?!

GHIA Tablet - ONLY AGILE B a.k.a AGILE A7i

So I have this tablet, thanks to my little nephew who loaded it up with tons of games and viruses/ads (he's 8 yrs old) so he asked me to repair it for him. My problem is that I can't seem to find any relevant info on this tablet, not even on the manufacturer's website , which i find truly strange not to find it there and it's not a very well designed site either. Does anyone know of any software for this tablet to restore or upgrade firmware on this equipment? Can it be TWRP'd or CWM'd?? Are there any Custom ROM's for it? I'm kind of assuming most answers will be hard no's due to the Intel Processor in this thing.
According to CPU-Z this are the specs:
Processor: Intel Atom (TM) CPU Z2520 1.20 GHz
Cores: 2 (4 CPU's)
Architecture: x86
CPUID: 6.35.1
Codename: Saltwell
Model: ONLY AGILE B (GHIA-pn)
Manufacturer: GHIA
Board: GB7_GEN_CN
Hardware: redhookbay
Screen; 6.94 inches
Resolution: 600 x 1024 pixels
DPI: 170
RAM: 1024 MB
Internal Storage: 3.85 GB
OS: Android 4.4.2
API: 19
Bootloader: Droidboot Provision OS v.2.0
IFWI version: F9.FD
Product: GHIA-PN
BUILD ID: G02TJET_A442_X04_006_607PRS_ES
Java VM: Davlik 1.6.0
OpenGL ES: 2.0
Kernel Arch.: i686
Kernel Version: 3.10.20 (eng.aily.20150128.132500)
Root: NO
Google Play Svc.: 20.15.16 (000700-309763488)
UPDATE 5/30/2020: I contacted the manufacturer GHIA and they responded quickly indicating this tablet is supposed to match up with the GHIA Agile A7i and even provided me this direct link to download the manual and firmware updates. It contains the IntelAndroidDrvSetup 1.1.5, iSocUSB Driver 1.0.1, and PhoneFlashTool 3.1.8.2 (win32) executables. I couldn't get the 1.1.5 or 3.1.8.2 files to launch, it gave me a "admin user has blocked these programs..." error msg even though I ran them as Admin. So instead, I downloaded updated versions of these programs and they installed fine (IntelAndroidDrvSetup 1.10.0, iSocUSB 1.2.0 & PhoneFlashToolLite 5.8.4.0). I was able to flash the firmware using PhoneFlashToolLite 5.3.2.0 which did give the tablet a better touchscreen response and eliminated the lag i saw originally (process is rather lengthy), but it did remain on kitkat 4.4.2 and no root access. It does offer the option to apply firmware updates locally via the system updates menu (online updates wouldn't connect to network), but I couldn't locate the correct directory in order for the system to recognize them that way.
I'm not familiar at all with the Droidboot Provision OS bootloader, albeit it looks pretty cool and useful. Unfortunately I couldn't find adb/fastboot commands that work with it to unlock the bootloader and be able to flash a custom recovery like TWRP/CWM (perhaps ported?) or get a custom ROM on it either. One major flaw i did noticed though is that not many games from the Google Play Store work at all even though they install but just FC. Surprisingly enough, it did allow you to uninstall any app it comes bundled with, so good for bloatware cleanup. I welcome any feedback anyone may have on this little tablet.

How to reflash Galaxy A02s with 64bit Android

Hello forum guys, I've registered now to see if any enlightened souls could help me.
So straight to the problem...As stated in the title I have a Galaxy A02s and I am having problems with its Android.
I did a lot of research but I'm just getting more doubts, I read things like custom mod, kernel 64, treble info, and so on.
I will specify my device with the Aida64 information for better understanding:
Chipset: Qualcomm Snapdragon 450
Core Architecture: 8x ARM CORTEX-A53 @ 1804MHz
Manufacturing Process: 14nm
Instruction Set: 64-bit ARMv8-A (32-bit Mode)
And Treble Info says:
In the Architecture part: "Your device is ARM32 but uses a 64-bit binder. This usually indicates that the hardware supports 64-bits but the software does not. In this case, a 'binder64' or 'a64' image should be used. "
And in the Image Requested part: "Your device needs an image file called 'system-arm32_binder64-ab.img.xz.'"
I don't know if this Treble has anything to do with leaving Android in 64-bit, but I was researching and researching and that's what I got, however, I have little knowledge about these things and I didn't find any tutorial teaching how to install/update to 64-bit
That's it, I hope you can help me, thank you in advance
What's your real problem?
Any 64-bit SoC flawlessly runs 32-bit Android OS and 32-bit apps

sorry, stopping to read again what i wrote i realized i didn't specify what i needed help lol
So I just don't want this 32-bit mode, I googled to see if my processor had architecture to run in 64-bit, and apparently yes, so I wanted to put android in 64-bit, but I have no idea of how to do this
thanks again
Replace this thread's title by your real problem: How to reflash Galaxy A20s with 64bit Android
Certainly, you flashed a 32bits system.
Just flash a 64bits system.

I bought the phone and it came like this, but how do I do it ? To a 64bits system
I'm also with the same problem, I would need some ROM for the 64-bit system, but I realized that there is none so far, is there any other way to change it to 64-bit without changing the ROM?
Short answer: NO
Short answer: NEVER
I'd like to ask how is the 32bit system with the 64bit system?

How to mod our Sony Bravia from 32 to 64 bit

Hello everyone
Briefly , I try to understand HOW to mod our Sony BRAVIA 4K VH21 UC TV to go from 32 to 64 bit in order to install the Dolphin emulator.
on Dolphin website the requirements are :
System Requirements
The following are requirements your Android device needs to meet in order to install the application:
Android 5.0 or higher
A 64-bit processor (AArch64/ARMv8 or x86_64)
A version of Android that supports 64-bit applications
A graphics processor that supports OpenGL ES 3.0 or higher.
If your device fails to meet any of these requirements, attempting to install Dolphin will return an error message reading "Application not installed."
Note that some devices are equipped with 64-bit processors but ships with 32-bit builds of Android. Installation will fail on these devices as well. There's no way to fix this, and no manufacturer has updated a 32-bit only device to support 64-bit apps.
our Sony Bravia have theses specs :
-- Android 10
-- 4x ARM Cortex-A73 @ 1800 MHz / 64-bits ARMv8-A (Mode 32-bit)
-- OpenGL ES 3.2 v1
Downloaded DOLPHIN 5.0-17995 and APK installer
the app refuse to install saying the app is incompatible....
I feel im touching the dream at the tips of my fingers
Please tell me its fesable with my specs and how to proceed step by step
I HOPE someone will be able to help me (but you are all invited for sure
HAPPY NEW YEAR 2023 guys !

Hi
thanks for your answer.
QUESTION 1 : BEFORE i proceed , did the process is reversible ?
It will not be hard/impossible to re-install app like youtube/netflix ?
QUESTION 2 : where i can find such custom rom ? I have to make it myself ?
QUESTION 3 : Did you have a step-by-step tutorial to do so ?
As you can see here obviously a Custom Recovery - what is prerequiste to install a Custom ROM - isn't available.
But may be you find one doing a related Google search.
