Yet another way how to backup persist (or any other) partition even without PC, with rooted phone and Magisk: Install Magisk module "backup" and reboot. After that using some terminal app in phone (I use Termux), first gain root access: su and then enter backup persist it will create file persist.img in folder /backup of your phone's internal storage. The path can be changed of course. I suppose same can be achieved with dd command, but the above is easier. Instead of terminal app in the phone you can of course use adb shell from a pc.

Just to add that I'd cracked a small corner of my screen maybe a year or so ago and ordered the cheap screen from China for like 45$ CAD or so shipped. It wasn't a ton of damage though so I waited for a major reason to switch it, which was as of 3ish days ago getting a ton of random ghost touches making it type messages and send pics to people LOL no joke. So I just replaced it and wow it was so hard to remove the screen without a heat gun. Tons of glass shards still stuck and took a while to remove carefully with an xacto knife. Also the 3M adhesive was confusing but I used logic and figure i

Unless you are very much in a hurry to immediately get any new updates on release (last was August 2020), then I would suggest to disable the two System Apps both called "Wireless Update", and when you get information on a new update you want to apply, you can just re-enable them. it is com.adups.fota and com.adups.privacypolicy Do both a disable AND a stop (!) as described here ADB shell pm disable-user com.adups.fota ADB shell am force-stop com.adups.fota ADB shell pm disable-user com.adups.privacypolicy ADB shell am force-stop com.adups.privacypolicy (You can stop them fro

Does anyone have any ideas on what I can do to obtain a replacement keyboard, I used some acetone to remove some oily smudges but that has caused the glue to dissolve and weaken substantially and has also damaged the keys presumably through dissolution of the plastic. The part beneath the keyboard buttons the surface the keyboard is bonded to or was bonded to where the actual buttons are is totally fine its simply a cosmetic and tactile issue being that some keys are damaged as well as no longer being bonded to the functional part of the keyboard. The structure I can determine is the phys

Having a Pro1X since August on Salt Network in Switzerland and observed a clear weaker cellular connectivity comparing to other phones in my company with the same provider. The mentioned waiting time before call-start or even non-availibility for incoming calls is a regular fact. After now a week of business-traveling with roaming in Italy, I plan to change my phone. Comparing to my business-partner with a Z-Flip I was often lost with connectivity, or with a rate below 1Mbit with a Samsung on full speed beside me. My physical-keyboard-phone is worthless, when I live on the moon with it.
