    • RE: Back up officially purchased app as APK (no root)?

      There are plenty of https://android.izzysoft.de/applists/category/named/file_backup available specialized on this (also some file managers like Amaze mentioned in Robert's comment on your question cover this as well) – or you could simply use /questions/tagged/adb .

      If you're on Linux (Mac or Cygwin should work as well), my tool Adebar has a fitting script in https://codeberg.org/izzy/Adebar/src/branch/master/tools which can even deal with split APKs, watch out for getapk: when called without parameters it gives you details on its syntax. The script can extract single APKs, or APKs of all system or user-installed apps at once.

    • Keyboard connected via USB OTG writes wrong characters

      I have keyboard+mouse combo connected via USB A -> USB C reduction. Mouse works as expected, but keyboard writes wrong characters (it starts in second line see below).

      I tried two different USB combos (from different manufacturer - Logi(tech), Yenkee) and both produce same result.

      It's Asus stock Android 11, system language is English, SW keyboard is SwiftKey (QWERTZ, EN+CZ), also I use Bluetooth keyboard Logitech K840 which works as expected.

    • adb - pull data from non-rooted android

      I am trying to backup data from Xiaomi Mi 9t which has a software error and is non-functional:

      • the screen is stuck at 'Just a sec'
      • in settings I am only able to connect to wifi and bluetooth
      • USB debugging is enabled
      • phone is not rooted

      I am able to connect to device using adb shell but I am not able to pull any data.

    • RE: How to mount Andoid 10 file system on Ubuntu 20?

      Well, you can mount it the same way as Android 9 on Ubuntu 18 (or any Android > 4 on almost any Linux distribution) – utilizing ADB. I use https://github.com/spion/adbfs-rootless for that. True, you need to compile it yourself – but that's pretty easy, with instructions in the readme. That done you can easily mount the storage of your Android device at the command line – and access everything that's accessible without root powers as if it were locally available on your Linux machine.

    • RE: Not Connecting with private LTE network

      Check the supported https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/LTE_frequency_bands of the device.

      Your company will most likely only operate their LTE private network in one special band which has to be supported by the device. If the device does not support the necessary band/frequency then you can't use the device in the company LTE network.

    • RE: Galaxy Note 5 suddenly stopped booting up and in recovery mode has dm-verity and failed to mount errors?

      You could try to flash all partition images (except userdata.img) via heimdall command line

      heimdall flash --BOOTLOADER sboot.bin --CM cm.bin --PARAM param.bin --BOOT boot.img --RECOVERY recovery.img --RADIO modem.bin --SYSTEM system.img --CACHE cache.img --HIDDEN hidden.img
      

      The above example command is created from partition list. This is how you get pit file

    • RE: Bluetooth -- is there a regional difference in implementation?

      Answer: The Sony Xperia 5 III just has bluetooth problems with some systems.

      There does not seem to be a fix. The fix is to use a different make and model of phone.

    • RE: Purge /data/system/packages.xml from manually deleted packages

      I manually edited packages.xml deleting relevant sections from to for every obsolete Trichrome package, working fine.

      Make sure owner system and permissions rw-rw---- 660 are preserved after edit, then reboot.

      For extra safety I first made a backup of the original file and for convenience I edited a copy of the file on a PC using Notepad++, then pushed back on my device.
