Aroma File Manager - Pixel C Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Any one got Aroma File Manager to work in TWRP?
Flashing v1.91 gave 255 error and if I tried to place aromafm.zip into TWRP/theme/aromafm folder it says not found. That's what I did for Nexus 7.

[Q] Astro- copy,paste files option is grayed out

Im trying to copy and paste a recovery file in a zip file "3e_recovery_no_sig_check1" from another post which is supposed to allow unsigned zip files to be flashed in 2.2. I extracted the "Recovery File" from the zip and placed it in the Sdcard folder. I downloaded Astro in order to access the extracted Recovery File so I could replace the existing Recovery File located in the System/Bin location.
However, the cut and paste option in Astro is grayed out not allowing me to replace the recovery file. Is there a way to activate the cut and paste (rw)feature? All files in System/Bin are labeled -r-.
Previous Post: "I have noticed some of you are having issues after installing a new kernel or rom, when you boot into recovery you now have 3e, which does not allow unsigned zips to be flashed. With this version of 3e it has no-verification check, now allowing you to flash whatever you want.
This zip has
1) 3e recovery modified to disable signature checking
2) disables the forced wipe after installing any update.

howto setup Desire USB Host Mode

Hey guys,
I am trying to get USB Host Mode working on a "HTC Desire A8183" (Telstra branded from Australia). This will be used as a mobile data logger connected to an Arduino. This works out of the box on Galaxy S3 (without powered usb hub too!) but I think it requires an older patched kernel on the HTC Desire.
Spent a few hours on this yesterday, couldn't get it working while trying to compile my own kernel. Got it working using a precompiled kernel from Tim (See below)
-----------------------------------------------
Update:
(new user, cant post links sorry, copy & paste )
Follow the "Gaining S-OFF" instructions from here: wiki.cyanogenmod.org/w/Install_CM_for_bravo
Download the Cyanogenmod ZIP file: get.cm/get/jenkins/3075/cm-7.2.0.1-bravo.zip (or another version from get.cm/?device=bravo
Download the USB Host Mode enabled kernel from here: tim.mactory.com/HTC_Desire/2.6.37_host_mod.zip ( more details about kernel here: tim.mactory.com/htc-desire/
Download Google Apps ZIP file from here: goo.im/gapps/gapps-gb-20110828-signed.zip ( or another version from goo.im/gapps
Format the SD card (fat32) from your Desire (mine was a 2GB one) and copy the 3 zip files to the SD card.
(full instructions here wiki.cyanogenmod.org/w/Install_CM_for_bravo
Hold volume down + power, select recovery, wait a few moments, run both "wipe" options
then choose the "install zip" option and "select zip" option and install all 3 zip files: *cm-7.2.0.1-bravo.zip *then *2.6.37_host_mod.zip then *gapps-gb-20110828-signed.zip
press back and choose the restart option
the phone will now boot into the new "cyanogenmod" with usb host mode support
Follow the instructions from here: tim.mactory.com/htc-desire/</a>
Connect the USB device, then over a shell/terminal enter these commands:
insmod /system/lib/modules/$(uname -r)/kernel/drivers/usb/core/usbcore.ko
insmod /system/lib/modules/$(uname -r)/kernel/drivers/usb/host/ehci-hcd.ko
Install one of these apps through Google Play store to check any problems and see if it's working: play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=eu.chainfire.usbhostdiagnostics&hl=en
Can not get it to update kernel
I have the latest nightly Cyanogenmod 7. My kernel now: [email protected] #1 (cm-7-20130301-NIGHTLY-bravo.zip)

try disabling signature verification in your recovery
Thanks!!! It worked! I thought that setting could only help with signature related problems, but apparently it just skips any checking at all. Now Im off to a few reboots and repairing my installations with Link2sd, have to keep my Desire alive some more months
The method needs to be better documented or something ...
Stuck on next problem:
When I navigate to the module folder (the uname -r gives longer result than actual foldernames) and as root issue command: insmod usbcore.ko
the result is: insmod: init_module 'usbcore.ko' failed (Exec format error)

Tab 3 8.0 twrp problems

So got my tab rooted and twrp set up and somewhat working. I've had a few issues though regarding flashing ROMs. I've had this error in the twrp log file a few times:
E:Unable to open zip file.
Error flashing zip '/external_sdcard/ROM/cm-11-20140420-UNOFFICIAL-lt01wifi.zip'
And
I:Cannot find file /external_sdcard/ROM/cm-11-20140414-UNOFFICIAL-lt01wifi.zip.md5

Error flashing zip '/external_sdcard/ROM/cm-11-20140414-UNOFFICIAL-lt01wifi.zip'
I had the same issue with bindroid ROM, until it finally worked. 2hen I download the ROM and leave it in the download folder it seems to work but if I move it to another folder on the internal SD or external SD I get these messages.
The second error message is strange since it says my device isn't a T310 but a tab8wifi, which is the same, very strange. I'm using TWRP_T31x_r3.tar
Anybody got any idea?
I have heard people having issues with TWRP. Try out CWM, you might have better luck.

That is a bad version of TWRP that you have. Use the version I posted HERE if you want TWRP.

Can't seem to patch stock rom using magisk v23, do I have the right file? What am I doing wrong?

I'm new to rooting and I'm trying to root a Pixel 3a XL I've just inherited. Following steps from a tutorial, I've unlocked the bootloader and installed Magisk v23.0 on the phone, and I copied on the internal storage all the files from the zip file I downloaded from Google that are supposed to be the stock ROM for my build #. There are 2 .img files in there: bootloader-bonito-b4s4-0.3-7062600.img and radio-bonito-g670-00105-210113-b-7078968.img (there are a few scripts and another zip file in there too). The first one seems to be the boot file (Ramdisk is YES in Magisk), but when I try patching it (Magisk Install > Select and Patch a File > I choose the file via my file manager), I get the following error messages: 'Unsupported/Unknown image format' 'Installation failed'. The same thing happens if I try the other image file.
I obviously don't want to trial and error too much patching a rom that I'm going to flash my phone with. Any idea what I'm doing wrong there? Thank you!
EDIT: I had also done a checksum of the archive I downloaded from Google and it all lined up, so that shouldn't be the issue.
you need to patch the kernel. inside the zip is a second zip. in there is a file boot.img. that is the kernel. extract and copy it to your phone, then you can patch it, copy it back to your fastboot capable machine, and flash
ei: boot.img within a .zip within a .zip

Download Magisk-vXX.apk
Rename .apk to .zip
flash
when booted rename to .apk and install the app
worked, thx
Has anyone ever installed Magisk by following this guide?
Installation
The Magic Mask for Android

It looks more complicated than just flashing the *.zip file
