Help - USB Debugging always defaults on after reboot - Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi Guys,
I have a HTC Desire with Defrost 6.1 + Data2SD.
However whenever I connect it to USB it always has USB debugging turned on, I can turn this on and it will work as normal until I reboot then it will be turned on again and I have to turn it off.
Why does it do this? Can I turn it off permanently (not totally remove it just have it set to off by default when I reboot) ?
Many thanks,
Stephen

I'd imagine that, with most other AOSP/CM-built ROM's, it has the following set in the default.prop file (contained in the boot image with the kernel)
ro.debuggable=1
persist.service.adb.enable=1
Both helps to debug/test/check ROM's when they are made, as devs/users can get straight into adb from boot of a freshly wiped & installed ROM to either view logcat output or fiddle about to resolve & sort out any issues which may be present after each release.

Hmmm ok so how can I disable this?
I have tried editing the file in the root of the phone but it seems to get overwritten, I'm guessing this is from the file contained in the boot image like you said.
Please bear with me, I'm new to android.

change kernel to boot on charge

Hi all,
I've a samsung S4 mini (i9195) and I want to boot the device when it's plugged to charger
I tried many solution I've found like change the playlpm file but it simply does not work.
So I've decide to modify the kernel. Has someone change on the kernel to do this?
At this moment i'm trying to change the code in file /init/main.c but it does not work
Someone can help me?
Any solutions (I9295 and playlpm-script not working either)
Hi
I'm also looking solution for the same problem. I have Samsung Galaxy S4 active (international version I9295) and I have tried several different solutions to fix this. I have already tried following solutions:
- playlpm basic editing (as seen on many, many tutorials)
- playlpm including chmod changes and SU additions
- correct chmod and chown settings to playlpm
- 3rd party apps (which of most do the same as I have done by had)
When using shellscript above (playlpm), phone (when plugged into AC or USB when off), shows blank battery icon, shows it for 5-10 secs and then goes blank, and repeats whole sequence again and again.
What I what considered is that somehow reboot mode itself calls playlpm again, so it is stuck in low power mode bootloop, but this is just guessing game.
Anyone with helping solution? I really would like to get my S4 A to boot on charge.
On new Sansumg devices the file isn't playlpm. The new name is only lpm.
Try this and tell us if you have success.

[Q] Galaxy ACE II GT-I8160P in Crash-reboot loop; Stock ROM; Save User Data

suddenly the GT-I8160P started to crash and reboot to crash again and so on.
details:
- the system metioned to be in reduced functionality due to less storage capacity.
- the phone rebooted after starting some app to analyse the memory usage.
- now the system comes up until a few seconds after the lock screen is displayed.
- I am able to unlock the phone and start an app (for example Contacts) and see all contacts are still there.
- but the time is not enough to do anything useful until the phone crashes again and reboots.
I tried:
- first use odin and flash the stock rom again > no result (phone is still on stock rom (4.1.2))
- odin flash the 4.1.2 stock rom without branding > time to crash is a little longer
I want to recover the contacts and some App data (i.e. Whats-App)
The idea to send a stop command via adb shell would be very good.
But adb doesn't find the device as it boots up. Cause the windows system hasn't the time to properly install the driver MTP-USB-Device before the phone crashes again and hence is disconnected what causes the driver installation to break. ADB can connect to the device when it is in recovery mode. BUt am I able to access the file system in this state?
As I am looking through the net for several hours now and trying several suggestions I was not able to get any progress...
If there is any idea I could try either for accessing the data or stopping the phone from rebooting your help would be very welcome. Thank you in advance
Maybe there is any solution with a configuration which is an initramfs which allows to mount the file system and to be connected anyhow (i.e. adb) but I didn't get any hint to something pointing into a similar direction. At least not without wiping the phone (including the data) in advance...
Does Clockwork Mod could be an option
I found the ClockworkMod.
Could this help to get an Recovery boot ?
Does an installation preserves the actual data on the device ?
How did you solve, please help
The issue is still under long-term investigation...
actual status : the boot loop is caused by a massive error in the filesystem of the data partition of the internal memory.
Without dedicated knowledge of the android / Linux / Unix system / boot process / and command line tools one will have no chance to recover anything.
Hence, the recovery of most user-data is very hard / not possible / not economic ... I still try some ideas with imaging the internal memory. But actually I have no great hope to get the user-data out of the boot-looping device.
Most parts of configuration (either system and apps) data might be able to be recovered.
Finally a factory rest will become necessary to get the functional device back.
After the factory reset there is no reason why the device should not work probably.

n910v, unrooted, usb debugging disabled, black screen, recover sms log over ADB?

I have hit dead end after dead end, after many hours, just want to get copy of text messages off this phone somehow, and then erase all data. I have spent many hours on this, my level of experience with all this is beginner/intermediate, as I'm sure you will be able to tell by the ramble below. Skip to the last paragraph **** with the asterisks to get to the important part of my inquiry. if you don't want to read about what I have tried already.
Before you suggest the obvious, replace lcd, let me say that the motherboard lcd connector is damaged beyond repair. water damage, but the phone boots normally and seems to run fine. phone calls ring and other sounds indicate the phone is able to function but no display or touch function obviously. the usb port works. Also there is no samsung account on the phone so that option to bypass screen lock does not help. Kies, smart switch, etc don't help due to the "screen lock"
ie... There is a basic swipe to unlock "lock" on the phone, so otg cable options also hit a dead end. There are workarounds to bypass other lockscreens, but no way to do the swipe over otg that I can find. And even if/once I am able to swipe to unlock over otg, there are other obstacles to get around that may not be possible (click ok, navigate to enable usb debugging). If I am wrong here and there is an obvious solution I am missing, let me know (explain in detail if you can) and I will get the hub & cable back out and try again!
Dr.phone android recovery (data recovery/damaged device option) looks like the most promising, and here I have also run into trouble. Dr phone will put the phone into download mode but then always seems to fail "flash recovery package failed" at some percentage. dr.phone downloads the recovery package (I am selecting the correct model n910v) successfully, but the percentage before flash recovery package fails changes. It hasn't made it past 85%. the dr.phone log files don't reveal anything to my untrained eye.
Before running dr.phone, adb "permission denied"...after using dr phone, however, while the phone is still powered on and in download mode, once I close dr phone, I am able to start to get somewhere with adb! adb devices shows the phone as an emulated device, and (some) adb commands start to work! I think if I just am able to find the exact location of the stock messaging log, I will be very close.
If anyone can suggest some commands to try in adb to grab just the sms log I would be very grateful!
I can run "adb backup", and have tried a few other adb commands, but none of the standard backup commands actually contain a sms log.
***Anyway, I think the best option might be to flash a custom recovery after getting the phone in download mode & adb working successfully (showing as an emulated device) with dr.phone as described above... However I have no way to tell what firmware version the phone is running (don't want to brick it or loose data), and I am really looking for specific directions on which clockworkmod or twrp recovery file to try for n910v, that will allow me to get a sms backup, and/or a recovery that will have usb debugging enabled.
Thanks for the input! sorry for the rambling post, I hope it's possible to make sense of it.. ANY help greatly appreciated!

This tool might work for you. Ive never used it myself but it looks promising. It supposed to be able to control your phone on your pc.
For the custom recovery, it should tell you what model you have when you boot into download mode but the TWRP for the note 4 has been unified so it should work either way. This link is for the most recent version. Get the .tar file if you're looking to use ODIN to install it.
Thanks for the reply! The tool you inked to requires USB debugging switched on. I was looking at it previously but didn't consider it because of this. I have USB debugging off, and the process I described with the dr phone windows application /download mode, doesn't turn usb debugging on.
Is there a way that I can flash a recovery for the note 4 that has USB debugging enabled from the start? If anyone knows please describe the process or post the link.
I think I need step by step instructions or screen shots for what to do with the Note 4 twrp recovery. I am trying to acquire a second phone so I can view the screen and know what buttons to press, but so far it is not looking like I have enough information to do sms backup from the twrp menus..on the device when I can't see the screen.
I see reference to being able to use adb commands to control the twrp recovery / backup process, but so far I haven't found anything that will help for my particular situation. If anyone knows what adb commands to use to pull the note 4 sms files , or a backup that includes them, PLEASE let me know.
thanks again

Need help unbricking Firestick 4K

I have 2 firestick 4ks.
Both identical in that they are rooted and debloated with (the same) various system apps frozen...
Both been running fine for a month or so...
Where I live I get frequent power cuts.
Yesterday after a power cut... one reboots correctly the other just goes to a black screen.
I connected it to my PC and ADB into it, I reenabled all apps via adb and rebooted, it just went to the same black screen.
So I booted to TWRP and reflashed RBoxes prerooted image, still nothing...
I then installed a stock image (Skel40's).... Still nothing.
Up to this point I had only been wiping Cache & Dalvik and dirty flashing.
I figured that there was a corrupted file that was affecting full boot, so I made the mistake of wiping data and installing stock again...
When I rebooted I had lost ADB!
I could still see the firestick in windows, however it just comes up as "Fire" in device manager with no ADB..
I grabbed an OTG cable and booted to TWRP and tried a few more times... each time gave exactly the same black screen (no orange amazon logo).
Finally I tried wiping system as well in case something was corrupted and reflashed stock.... Still nothing!
So I don't really know where to go from here... (I'm going to backup the other firestick and restore that over this one then reflash stock and see where that gets me...)
Does anyone have any ideas! I can get into TWRP, but I'm not sure it's wiping or flashing things correctly...
Any help greatly appreciated... Thx
Have you done any of the ideas listed in the other thread? Let me know if i can help #lockdown

Hi Michajin...
Thanks for taking the time to help
I'll fill you in as to what I have and haven't tried...
I have wiped all standard partitions ( cache, dalvik, data, system) and reflashed both rooted and stock images *.*.6.8 and *.*.7.1
I think I may have wiped the Vendor partition, I'm not sure.
Under backup in TWRP I can see the Vendor partition, however under Wipe I see an extra 2 partitions (both) called storage and having not made a backup (I know!... )
I did'nt realise that the storage partition(s) may have been the Vendor partition.
After wiping cache, dalvik, data, system partitions and then flashing stock and rooted images multiple times and still getting a black screen... I tried wiping the one storage then the other and then finally Internal.
A couple of points that I can tell you...
I can boot to TWRP
I can reboot to hacked Bootloader
When I connect the firestick to my windows PC It's senses it straight away for a bout 10 seconds then drops it... It then senses it again and stays connected to my PC.
Windows recognizes it under portable devices as simply "fire" and an empty explorer window pops up, if I right click on the firestick in windows explorer (it shows as drive) I can pull a properties page which shows its serial number...!
On both my firesticks I have modified my build.prop for a faster boot which doesn't show the splash screen.
Both sticks were modified identically about a month ago and once setup had nothing added to them. They just get used for Kodi and catch-up TV apps.
I root them so as to boot directly into Kodi and freeze the bloat.
Both sticks have been rebooted multiple times.. This one failed after a powercut...
I been reading in the main rooting thread and have come across something about sticks not booting properly due to dm_verity failing and having to flash magisk before (or after... I'm not sure) the image flash.
I'm still reading through the thread so haven't tried anything yet... When i get head round what it is, I'll try.
The other 2 ideas I thought to try was to
1) flash an image directly from the bootloader (if possible.. I need to find more info on this) and
2) taking a backup of the working stick and trying that (It's in use a lot... due to #TotalLockdown! we're at 4 weeks with heavy police curfew! So I haven't had access to it)
If have any ideas or thoughts... I would be very grateful. Also I'm happy to try anything...

It's really strange. Usually these steps should fix the issue :
1) Factory Reset from TWRP
2)Wipe System from TWRP
3) Flash full stock (non rooted) firmware
Of course, you could try flashing each image with hacked fastboot, or just boot, system and vendor with TWRP, which also have an option (install image) for that.
But you will have to convert system and vendor from sparse (.dat) to . img before being able to flash them.
Wiping these should have taken care of you issue.
"After wiping cache, dalvik, data, system partitions and then flashing stock and rooted images multiple times and still getting a black screen... I tried wiping the one storage then the other and then finally Internal."
What stock did you flash from where?
When you flash stock are there any errors?
You should be able to take a backup from you other one also for other one (if you are doing a full backup/restore, i would wipe data and cache after restore)
Thanks guys for the replies, I couldn't respond earlier due to an 8 hr powercut today!

Hi Pretoriano80
Yeah... It's really weird... I'm starting to think that the stick is damaged in some way, although the fact I can get in both the hacked bootloader and TWRP confuses me!
I've even wiped each partition 3 or 4 times (and rebooted back into recovery to remount) before writing the new image just to make sure.!
I'm ready to try anything at this point, since the stick is a brick at this point.
I'm not really sure how or what to flash from the bootloader, I'll read up a bit before I try especially your tips about converting from sparse to .img.
(I may have some further questions for you, if that's alright )
I will try to restore a backup from another stick first (if I can get access to that stick for long enough...)

I have tried this stock image update-kindle-mantis-NS6271_user_2493_0003590962564
https://forum.xda-developers.com/fire-tv/general/official-stock-image-fire-tv-stick-4k-6-t4059777
as well as a update-kindle-mantis-NS6268_user_2315_0003255372676 image (stock that I think i got from the main rooting thread)
I've also used Rboxes pre-rooted image mantis-6.2.6.8-rooted_r1
which was the image that worked fine on both boxes...
I'm happy to try any other image that you might have a link for.....
When I wipe the partitions there are no errors, except for when I wiped the storage partitions - they did throw up an error - although at this point I had already tried flashing new images at least a dozen times,
All the images flash without error as well!
I'm stumped... I've never had any android device brick before... (soft bricks many times! but never a hard brick), and it's weird since I have access to both the bootloader and TWRP.
Tomorrow I'll be able to get a restore image from the other stick, Then I'll try flashing from bootloader..
The only other thing i thought to try was to crack the case open and redo the the whole root procedure from scratch...
Sorry to double-post...
However I wanted to add this as a separate post rather than an edit.
After playing with my firestick for a few days, during which I tried a working backup and erasing from the bootloader and then restoring multiple images (stock and prerooted), as well running the exploit again.
I realised that the OS was loading (I regained ADB after the full restore) despite not giving an image over HDMI (just a black screen).
I was about to give up when I happened to be going through the options in ADBLink and I found the screenshot button.
I gave it a try and to my surprise it sent back an image of the stick with a working OS/screen.
I even manged to navigate through the settings and do a full reset from within FireOS by taking screengrabs.
After the reset it still gave a black screen, I re-enabled ADB from TWRP and was able to verify that it had reset correctly...
From ADB I ran a logcat...
I'm not really familiar with logcat but a couple of things seemed to jump out...
Code:
1) 596 617 I DisplayManagerService: Display device changed: DisplayDeviceInfo{"Built-in Screen": uniqueId="local:0", 720 x 480, modeId 4, defaultModeId 1, supportedModes [{id=1, width=1920, height=1080, fps=60.000004}, {id=2, width=1920, height=1080, fps=59.94}, {id=3, width=720, height=576, fps=50.0}, {id=4, width=720, height=480, fps=60.000004}], colorMode 0, supportedColorModes [0], HdrCapabilities [email protected], density 320, 213.0 x 216.0 dpi, appVsyncOff 1000000, presDeadline 16666666, touch INTERNAL, rotation 0, type BUILT_IN, state ON, FLAG_DEFAULT_DISPLAY, FLAG_SECURE, FLAG_SUPPORTS_PROTECTED_BUFFERS}
2) 1145 1145 I AmazonHdmiServiceManager: resolution applied and hdmi turned off
3) 596 2438 E AmazonHdmiService: Settings client binder died.
Seeing that there were some issues with the HDMI display (Display device change to built-In screen? and HDMI turned off?), I used the screengrab to navigate my way to display settings which wouldn't allow me to change resolution
So to sum it up...
Everything is loading and running correctly, however I can't get an image over HDMI only by getting screengrabs via ADBlink.
Maybe something on the chip (HDMI output) is damaged, I've had the stick for a while and it's had heavy usage, or something has stuck in a toggled state.
I don't know....
If anyone has any ideas how to test it I have full root access via TWRP and probably can get it over ADB, so any help or commands to try would greatly appreciated....
Thanks :good:

Just checking, but have you tried another HDMI cable and different TV? Somehow it is not recognizing the format in the OS. TWRP uses a lower format i believe. I have had a power surge before damaging HDMI here, but I wouldn't get anything with it plugged in.

Hi Michajin,
Thanks for your reply...
Yes I have tried multiple TV's, Monitors , and cables... Including the TV that it had been running on for almost a year...
I get frequent powercuts where I live, and often power surges when the power comes back on...
I do use surge protectors, however they don't always work....
One time the electricity board double one of the phases to 440v and knocked out £5k worth of equipment!
So between that and the humidity I think there is some minor damage to the stick... shame because it's still running.
I'm going to see if I can get a logcat from TWRP and see what it says about the HDMI output, not that it'll help...

So you get a display in TWRP, but go black after booting? I wonder if you can force whatever display mode and setting as used in TWRP as your display mode in FireOS. Had you tried another wall outlet (higher mA) ? A long shot at this point that you havent tried it....

Correct, I can get a display with TWRP, but it goes black when it boots into FireOS (from which I can get screengrab via adblink of the stick displaying FireOS or whatever app is running).
Up until now (for almost a year) I've just used the power adapter that came with the stick, but it's a good idea to try something more powerful (I have a 2.4a one that I'll try a little later).
Another thing I'm going to try is "adb shell wm size ***x***" "adb shell wm density ***" command to change the resolution & pixel density (I think).
I hadn't thought about power being an issue up until you mentioned it (because so far it hasn't been), but maybe a component has (or is) failed (or failing) so it might need more power...
I can't try until a little later this evening, but at least I have something to try now cheers! I'll let you know how I get on....

Hey I have a debloated clean stable rom that will be available soon. You can try that and you need to be sure to have either a usb otg or a hub for transferring this backup which will be titled ftvs4kdebloatedv1.0. Paste this folder to TWRP/BACKUPS/YOUR SERIAL #/ftvs4kdebloatedv1.0.

Customize Stock Kennels to enable usb debugging mode

I have a problem with a Samsung A50, it's my father's device. He forgot the pattern of the device, and now it is locked. I've tried ways to bypass the pattern, but almost all of them require USB debugging enable, which is still disabled. Bootloader is also locked, so can't install custom recovery. I tried sideloading Aroma File manager but it didn't work either. Restoring to factory settings was easy, but also lost all the photos he took in 2 years.
The last way is to be able to edit the default.prop file through the kennel file to enable USB debugging, which I can't do. Or create an update and sideload file to override the gesture.key file. I'm not sure if it's possible, but I can't do it myself anyway.

Have you tried flashing stock firmware/s?
I think it is the only way to recover the phone
