Few people see the interconnect between tech and philosophy. Most code is a series of rules or statements, much like laws or the philosophy of logic. Beyond code, in the hardware, electronics are engineered to determine the truth or falsehood of any given statement. Information technology has run our lives since the dawn of human time; from when to throw a spear, to when to push a button.

How can I reverse my DSU loader to the android version's one
Nice job, thanks.
so how much liability is access to illegal content. me personally as far as cp and such. on every channel since ggw was taken off the air s.v.u. and similar television shows can be made on a porn set . same imagination involved . if not worse. my precious little dakota fanning . i thought she played the role of a 11 yr old hate drape victim . with dorito commercials very well. . an episode of bones season 2 episode 2 in 2010 boy in the bay showed the fetus still attatched . where ever it started before the pronouns the demographic thats being targeted were born that way. now Nd then you still catch them in bed with you childs mother . no prob for them ofcourse . and i digress
wait what do you mean . last time i was goaded into trying dark web searches off hand recomended thru you tube /google there was a big ass bust almost immediatly .
so is their trouble . is this like tor . so we can expect congress to call us in so I can inform them about adult female autism and how it's contagious. human biology and behavioral science college course for Stanford online free . Just keep watching and taking notes when life happens . watching congress carrying on like there's a such thing as NOT KNOWING WHAT YOUR TALKING ABOUT. i5s turned into that I don't know everything . but still . the world's usually under Ice and cold af where it isn't the bs stress of old men and adult female autistics is a drag
Which VPN would you recommend?
nice
1. Its not hardbricked, just flash stock rom and it will be good as new. 2. all that talk about baseband is Bullshit, it has nothing to do with the topic. 3. developer mode has nothing to do with flashing, bootloader is is already unlocked in your phone.
No. Since these Roms have fastboot etc. Too, if you install the wrong one, you cant boot to fastboot. That can only be solved with custom recovery. And hardbricks are device fails, such as the motherboard being damaged.
@@batuemirseven the guy in video is already in fastboot mode
I never wanted a custom rom
You Bricked your Phone
This only happens with motorola devices
Use EDL to flash recovery and do whatever you need to from there.
Me who doesn't know how to custom rom a device: yay i am safe
It can even occur when updating your phone's OS.
@@C1YD3OW3N dang it!

@@Waxedcutcopperblock but still that means no security protection. 😢
@@Arnav306 every phone isn't 100% safe. And the best antivirus is your brain
bro fr bricked it 💀💀💀💀💀💀
can i do this with lineageos 21?
thanks bro
Totally works. Thank you!
Well done sir. A little info as absolutely needed makes it easy to understand.
Can you lock the bootloader after converting to global? I'm worried I might get a brick if I do I need confirmation.
You can since it's a signed firmware. Even if it's bricked from this process I have an MSM video that can help bring it back to life Custom ROMs cannot be locked on this device. Since this device is out of support so you should be using a custom ROM to maintain Android's latest security patches
The only reason I want to lock the boot loader is to use it for my banking apps again and fully certified functionality. I'm not too concerned about the security patches. I've already locked the bootloader by doing some research online. The phone is rebranded and still rocking android 11 I do not like the newest update do to battery drain. But thank you for getting back with me. If the phone gets old enough I may reconsider custom roms. Currently waiting for sale on the OnePlus R model currently. Thank you for getting back with me though I appreciate your time.
@@ShyStar of course! I have an old GApps phone just for banking and UA-cam responses. Have a great day!
Thank you - I got through 3 kinda different tutorials on websites which all created two different files in /etc and it did not work at all - gotta test it tomorrow at work but this looks promissing!
Thanks! I haven't used it for a couple years simply because a move and personal life changes forced me to shut down the home lab. The tutorial should still work since SystemD is dominant
thanks!
thank you so much
You saved me
What can you do if the bootloader status is locked? Because the phone in fact is bricked so I can’t change it in development options
This is *supposed* to work even with locked bootloaders. With phones that have locked bootloaders you cannot use custom ROMs
Your comment contradicts itself. Which is it? Can I use it with a locked bootloader or not?
MSM bypasses the bootloader This is video is not about custom ROMs, it is about a restore tool. There were two OnePlus 7T models sold in the US: T-Mobile and Global. Neither have locked bootloaders and I have a video on how to switch between the firmware versions The "OnePlus 7T Mclaren" is a totally different phone with different components. It has a locked bootloader and this video will not work for it due to the fact that it has completely different firmware
@@NicholasHenkey I'm facing the same issue. Everything was fine but when the phone rebooting it got stuck at the logo and turned off automatically. when I checked fastboot menu, it shows device state as locked. is there something in particular that I need to do?
You are a saviour. I went through so many websites and videos for this. I couldn't get around making it work with the "startup applications" as it would always require a login. Going through your notes with the accompanying blog post made this a breeze. Thank you... a lot.
does this work for docker?
I am almost certain, no. Still have not switched to docker myself
Did you ever get in contact with pine64 support to verify your thoughts?
I reached out and received no response
I am considering migrating to the Nextcloud all in one instance. I think this video will be extremely helpful. Thank you.
ive done this but i get the android screen and then the phone cuts off EDIT: now its stuck with the message: Download Failed!!! Please check your download flow is right.
do u find any solution ?
@@mateuszmiadowicz1703 the phone now is stuck in safeboot. No matter what i do, it stays in safeboot
Sorry for the late response, life got in the way of the channel. I found this on Reddit "Try to get in fastboot mode with all 3 buttons held, I did that on my 8t and it works you have to hold them down for 10 seconds". Apparently it worked on an 8T
Its 5g work or not
after updating to linage os from 19.1 to 20 my recovery image does not auto update do you now how to manually update it? i cannot sideload it
By far the best guide out there on MSM. Thank you so much.
Well that's not confusing
Great video!!
Informational video and this channel deserve a big audience.
No need to wipe Dalvik cache anymore?
I did not for this upgrade
Thanks a lot bro !! saved the day for me . Precise guide on how to get it done !!!
extremely helpful. this worked in Debian! I have been trying to make this work for over a month and every video I watched was not helpful. This one worked perfectly. Thank you!
Glad it worked for you! It's super handy for a homelab
When I type fastboot devices , it just gives me a blank space. How would I fix that?
I would first check my drivers, then change USB port, then swap USB cable, then check that the bootloader is unlocked I've also come across bad USB ports on phones in the past that created this problem
This channel is luke smith esque.
Hey Nicholas, nice video. Thank you! As net-tools are considered to be deprecated (even in 2021...), it would have been better to use 'ip' instead of 'ifconfig' to read out the IP address, in my opinion. That would save some work and lead anybody who is not familiar with the Linux command line tools down the right path right from the start. I admit though that 'ip' is a lot less intuitive than 'ifconfig' with all the options one has to learn.
Thank you, you are correct. 'ip a' is a much better solution now since it's included in every distro I'm not sure if it existed back when I started using Linux back in 2008-2009ish and I didn't keep up with the times
the thing with android 13 on my oneplus 6t when i update my phone to a new version it always reformat the phone for no reason :(
Oh dude, that is rough. I'm getting really close to retiring this 7t, the days of OnePlus being good are behind us and this one has seen better days
Nice 👍👍👍👍 work like magic thanks
I want to change my mastercpasword how do you do that
I would change it on the desktop app (KeePass XC is my preferred application for this). Make a backup (in case something goes wrong. On the top-right is "Database" > "Security" > click "Change Password"
Wow... That is exactly what I was told in school a couple of years ago. By the way, I have been following these advices since then.
