Hi all ,
This topic is about how to mount your Android device and have it transferring files easily & smoothly using Linux on your PC.
- This topic is related to solving the unstable file transfer between the linux system and MTP file system included in Android version 4.xxx & Higher ( Starting from Ice Cream Sandwich - ICS ).
- All Android version before ICS should not continue reading , as their devices should be read as ( Mass storage Device ) , in other words , the Linux OS will read devices as if it was a USB flash memory.
- The is solution for the laggy Folder opening , Solving the problem of which the files transfer suddenly stops before completing the transfer , specially with big files such as Films , Albums ,...etc.
- I'M NOT SURE that this is going to work with all ICS , JB & Higher devices but the below was tested on a Samsung Tab 2 P5100 device running Jelly bean ( JB ) 4.1.2 official stock ROM , & The below worked perfectly for me.
- Using Linux Mint 14 Cinnamon ( MINT is based on UBUNTU ) / 64 Bit version / Kernel Upgraded _unofficially_ to the latest stable kernel release 3.9.2
1. get Android SDK for Linux from : developer.android.com/sdk/index.html
2. Unpack it to your location
Note: if you have already downloaded Android SDK before, check that the version of SDK tools is latest.
3. turn on Debug mode in your Samsung tab.
4. run the command:
[your location]/android-sdk-linux_x86/tools/ddms
OR just open the folder TOOLS from the extracted folder & Run DDMS ( RUN it normally , Not RUN IN TERMINAL).
5. Click in menu Device -> File Explorer
Here you drag-n-drop your files to any location on your device.

Hi there , wud u plz clarify what do u mean by the details ? , I think the details are already mentioned up there , If you are talking about using the developer's SDK to transfer files.
Dear Xda,
Im An Oppo user my Device details As follows.
Device: Oppo F3 ( CPH1609)
MTK6750T
4Gb Ram, 64 GB ROM
Running on ColorOs 3.0.0i (Based on Android 6.0)
There are lot of problems / bugs in Os which Oppo Even failed to rectify.
When ever i Mailed them they simply quoting their common quotes
So i decided to Root my phone to develop ( no i cant do it lone )
During search of Root i found few obstacles
1) Oppo made decision to remove fastboot option fron their device
Ref: https://forum.xda-developers.com/r7-plus/help/decision-oppo-bootloader-fastboot-t3348114
2) MTK droid Tools not fully supporting the chipset
Ref:https://forum.xda-developers.com/attachment.php?attachmentid=4178413&thumb=1&d=1497202499
3) One click Root is not working ( king, farma etc)
4) cannot obtain boot & Recovery imgs to development
5) i thought stock firmware flash file may have useful but there are 2 types of probles
(A) flashablezip version : it has boot. Img but no recovery.img included. Also it is With. Ozip Not with. Zip extension
(B) PC version : it is like encrypted file. With. Ofp extension And With some other type file. And it is not flashing through SP-FLASH TOOLS. The flashing tool is different.
Ref https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=qw4HIQER0mg
Guys thease are my problems. Coz of those i failed to root my device.
My only Hope is Xda, you people know better than me ( probably Best) . Please analyze and and give suggestions.
Thanks In Advance

After scouring the internet for hours, I stumbled upon this post:

And guess what, I found the firmware for the device! Eventually, I was able to fix my bricked K3DX V5G, and here it is:

What I did was:
1. Decompressing the file
2. Flashing it with fastboot
3. Device resurrected!
Fastboot commands:
Code:
fastboot flash:raw boot boot.img
fastboot flash system system.img
edit: found out that it is a clone of ZTE v5 pro N940SC

Hmm well, have u tried peeking at the device manager when you phone is connected to your PC in fastboot mode?
If there's an entry showing your device you will need grab a fastboot binary to flash the firmware.
Here's a link to the tool called minimal ADB and Fastboot: here
You will also need to extract the firmware to somewhere in your drive.
Having done all the extraction and installation,
and since you're on Windows, you should do:
Bash:
\path\to\fastboot flash:raw boot \path\to\boot.img
\path\to\fastboot flash system \path\to\system.img
where \path\to\fastboot points to the path where you have extracted/installed the tool (or if you have added its path to the PATH environment variable, you can avoid the hassle to write the full path), and \path\to\boot.img and system.img points to absolute path of the extracted firmware.
Then, you are good to go!

I regret to tell you that, no. Currently I have been using the phone as a debian server, since the LCD has been inadvertently broken ( I exerted too much force on it ). Moreover, the device doesn't recognize its battery, which suggests that I might have broken some part of it. Therefore, I have kinda lost any hopes for it. Plus, my linux machine is not powerful enough to build an android OS ( what do you expect much from an intel celeron? ).
PS: I might do it once I get my hands on a much powerful one, or maybe a powerful enough VPS? I am not quite sure but currently I am still in high school, meaning that I may or may not have time....
Best regards,
B83C
I flash android 12 beta Google gsi from the link below, I flashed it with twrp and I am facing bootloop in my z2 plus, any solution??

I flashed the arm64
Exactly same problem here. If you find a solution please please please give a message on [email protected]
I am busy in fixing my sim card not working
If you flash a GSI image ( read: Vanilla ROM - AOSP ) then Android's OEM-created /vendor & /modem partitions gets lost. Probably /esf partition, too.
Hence you must not be surprised that phone is bootlooping

This shouldn't be the case because earlier I have formatted my device using so flash tool. Each and every system partition got lost including efs(nvdata and nvram in my case). I actually found another reason: Kernel is 32 bit which doesn't support 64 bit gsi. I tried finding a 64 bit firmware for my device but there's none.
Hi Everyone, I hope somebody can help me I've a Toshido Android tablet with mainly these specifications below:

Thanks in advance for any help, please sorry for my english and my poor experience too, let me know if I forgot something

Thank you, I downloaded and installed Magisk on the tablet and yet downloaded the link of the described "Android 10 factory image" (it's valid for my Toshido tablet too, right?.. ), then I extracted all into my pc, and copied a file named "boot.img" into my tablet as described on the thread (as I understood..)...for now I wished ask you if till now I did right.. (I didn't install the "Boot.img" file yet, because I still have to install ADB and FASTBOOT tools because I tried but my Linux OS is giving me some problems w repository 'n I'm trying to solve hoping soon...)
I'd like if someone can follow me in these steps... I hope to not annoy you I'd be very gratefull if you can do, 'cause I still have very little experience...

Sorry, I looked for the 32-bit version I supposed it was available on any architecture, but it doesn't seem to exist for me... I have a laptop with Linux OS on 32-bit Hardware, then I can not do anything? Thank you anyway
