Also, cm team can't release a single commit for fingerprint which will start working on all devices with fingerprint sensor. Every device is different and has a different implementation of fingerprint. It's a headache for our developers to understand how xiaomi made it work and implement it in cm rom. But they surely will. I have full faith in them.

Also, please please understand how development works. It's really irritating because people seem to expecting magical members of cm team to drop stable cm. Nothing as such is happening. The developers have started their work, the rom is in alpha right now but will gradually become stable. Fingerprint support will also be added by these very devs if it is added at all. No magician and no magic dropping stable rom from cm team.

Well, I did a fairly stupid mistake... Before flashing I didn't enable OEM unlock, therefore I couldn't unlock bootloader using "fastboot oem unlock-go" line.

When I try to tun it on, it shows MI logo and vibrates, turns black then shows MI logo again for a shorter amount of time, vibrates again and shuts down. No recovery, only fastboot mode. It doesn't even get recognized as adb anymore, and doesn't get recognized by MI pc suite either. While in fastboot it shows up in MiFlash, but I can't flash.

Is there a way for me to flash back a global stable ROM and get it working again? What are my options? How did you fix this?

I just got this phone and bricked it by a stupid mistake on my part. Help is really appreciated!!!

Hi. I am using the Indian variant and as per the first edit on the OP the official method should work. However, I am on the latest global 7.2.3 ROM, with official unlock permission but yet getting stuck at 50%. Could any Indian user confirm if they have been able to unlock the official way and what they had to do to get it to work.

Edit: BTW the unofficial method worked for me and I was able to relock as well so if the official method is going to take time, I am cool with going with this method.
[Xiaomi Redmi Note 3 Guides, News, & Discussion] AMDFusion:
Follow this steps :

1. Enter fastboot by holding vol down + power

2. Plug RN3Pro to PC

2. Flash original bootloader from official fastboot firmware

fastboot flash aboot emmc_appsboot.mbn

fastboot flash abootbak emmc_appsboot.mbn

3. Enter EDL mode (holding vol + and vol - and plug in cable)

4. Install Mi PC Suite from this link en.miui.com/thread-225600-1-1.html

5. PC finaly installed Qualcomm HS-USB QDLoader 9008

6. Flashed fastboot firmware with MiFlash

For the benefit of other users, can you please take 5 minutes and explain what you did? I could put that in the OP and help other and possibly prevent them from blocking their devices.

You flashed global 7.2.3.0 with modified emmc file to unlock bootloader unofficially. Right?

Also how did you relock it without getting hard brick?

You can add any other detail that you consider relevant.

Thanks a lot. [emoji2]

Lukatech, I had the same problem. I was able to unbrick my phone, using the method above, but still can't figure out how to get it to unlock. The oem unlock command still tells oem unlock is not allowed... how did you get it to work eventually? the flash seemed to be no problem with global stable rom and a replaced unlocked bootloader
[Xiaomi Redmi Note 3 Guides, News, & Discussion] Lukatech:
Hello sir!

You need to enter settings > additional settings > developer options > turn on "Enable OEM unlock". the option should be located somewhere at the beginning of developer options, so it's not easy to miss.

Try the flashing and unlocking again. This solved my issue and I bet it will solve yours too.

If you can't access developer options, go to settings > about phone > Tap "MIUI version" a bunch of times.
[Xiaomi Redmi Note 3 Guides, News, & Discussion] maysword:
Thanks. I cannot believe i got tripped up here... never had to flick a switch like that when I unlocked my M7 and OPO, lol. Having said that i think thakurneel convinced me to at least wait for xiaomi to see if they'll just give me the permission to unlock. less possible future complications...

But have not got any sms or message anywhere... also didn't see any mention that have to wait for message.

Now question : how to check if I can unlock officially? And should be on which ROM to unlock officially.. China Developer Fastboot?

Ok so I bought a new samsung s5 I checked everything and I'm pretty sure it's original.

So, I was about to root it when I got into download mode and realized it said the device model was SM-G900P but the thing is in the about device menu it says it's 900F. I took out the battery and checked and it says it's a 900F.

Therefore I'm confused. I don't know what to do since I don't wanna brick it. I would really appreciate some help. Thanks in advance

Notice

The recovery can't be flashed to the handset with locked bootloader! Unlock it first!

Team Win Recovery Project is a custom recovery for Android devices.

It allows you to back up and restore your data, flash custom and stock (with some remarks) ROMs to your device, repair broken file systems, and root your device.

Update 01.04.2016 (it is not a joke ;))

First stable release

Have fixed screen flickering and UI lagging

Update 29.03.2016

Download

TWRP 3.0 M86 fastboot flashable image

TWRP 3.0 M86 flashable zip

Stock Recovery flashable zip

Unlocked BL flashable zip

Install

With BL unlocked reboot into fastboot mode and flash:

fastboot flash recovery TWRP_3.0_m86.img

Cautions

Before flashing stock rom with TWRP replace bootloader file with unlocked one inside rom archive!!!!

Another method is to flash unlocked BL and TWRP zips immediately after flashing stock rom (need testing)

How you can? I install that version and I can't open micro SD from TWRP but from flyme I can witouth problems...
[Meizu MX] :
First, go to MOUNT, and check external_sdcard...

If you only want to install a .zip or .img from your sdcard, go to INSTALL -> Select Storage -> external sdcard

If you want to access to your files (all extensions), go to ADVANCED -> File Explorer

If it doesn't work, go to WIPE (Warning : you will lose all your files) -> Advanced -> check sdcard -> Change FileSystem -> FAT32

You can also make a backup of your sdcard before wiping...

Doesn't work to me, it show 0MB and when I put mount the microsd nothing happens, I don't know what is happening with the microsd in TWRP :crying: EXT2, 3, 4, ExFat, fat32 doesn't work anything... :(

I try with a 60MB microsd and it works!! but what happens with the Transcend 16GB!!!!!!!!!??

Finally!! format microSD from flyme not windows, not TWRP, only works if you format from flyme... now I can flash from trascend microsd!!

Did you unzip the folder and run ROM update? If you did then the problem is you need to upgrade to IPL 2.26 & SPL 2.26
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario Software Upgrading] xeno1:
It's because you have a 1.xx IPL and SPL. The only way that it is going to work is if you upgrade your ROM. You're going to have to upgrade the whole thing cuz if you would just upgrade the IPL/SPL to 2.xx to make the GSM work then the OS wouldn't.
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario Software Upgrading] zabardast_1:

Thanks.
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario Software Upgrading] xeno1:
Yes it will, unless the ROM contains a CID but I don't know of any that do. I know for sure that the T-Mobile ROM doesn't since it's the one I always flash back to before flashing a newly cooked WM6 ROM.

Hi.

//some info :

Samsung Galaxy Note 4

Beanstalk 6.12 (based on CM, android 6.0.1)

Xposed enabled, rooted etc.

Coverage in my school is pretty bad - low to no signal. Too much concrete I guess. Because of it my battery drops pretty fast even when I'm not using my phone.

I made a tasker profile to enable the airplane mode when there's no signal. Task detect if BT/WiFi was enabled before and turns it on again. Task disables Airplane mode after 20 mins to check for signal, and whole task restart.

However the problem is that BT is disconnected for a while, which is anoying and disables smart lock (up to first unlock), disconnect BT headphones and watch. Tweak is worth it ; now battery drops much slower. I want it to keep checking every 20 mins because there are some places where signal is pretty good.

//the question

I'm looking for a way to tweak airplane mode (or just disable signal with other method), and leave BT/WiFi untouched.

So far I found this :

androidforums.com/threads/how-to-keep-bluetooth-on-when-enabling-disabling-airplane-mode.659825/

I guess it's for older android versions, but tried anyway. In this folder I have almost right file. It's called "settings.db-journal". SQLite editor can't open it and build in editor shows Chinese? letters?.

If you could help me that would be awesome.

I am able to extract System.img from the 4.4.4 ODEN install and mount it in Ubunto. I can modify the folders and files to remove bloat, etc. I am able to repack back and use FlashFire to flash the 4.4.4 modified firmware.

My question is related to 5.0. I have tried the same method and after several modifled attempts, was able to extract and mount the System.img. After debloating, etc. I tried to repack it the same way but in FlashFire, it fails the MD5 check.

I tried another approach. Instead of repacking the full firmware package, I just created the System.img as a stand alone flash-able package. I then install 5.0 through ODEN, install Root and FlashFire.

When I try to flash my modified System.img through FlashFire, it passes the MD5 and installs successfully but it never boots. It never even makes it to the initial boot screen.

After that, I have to ODEN back again and start over. Any dev's out there that might know what I might be missing or can point me to some documentation on the process for 5.0?

[LG G5 Questions & Answers] panamaniac:
I'm on Sprint so if I go Galaxy I have no chance of getting root based on what I'm hearing right now. So a big selling point here is the ability to actually do some decent, cool root stuff on the G5. However, in the past I've mainly used root for wireless tether, but I now have hotspot so that won't be a huge deal either. I never had the V10 or G4—was the development decent there? Do you think it'll be decent on the G5?

Put differently, what are some of the main things you'd need to see in development for G5 in order to think it's worth getting over the Galaxy S7 or S7E, *and* do you think we'll see those things?

Thanks!!
[LG G5 Questions & Answers] CorruptProfile:
The biggest thing for me is that I enjoy using a stock rom over the different softwares that phones come preinstalled with. From what I have seen many different developers already plan on porting Cyanogenmod for the G5 if you enjoy using a custom rom. The biggest reason I chose the G5 over any Galaxy is the fact that I really don't like Touchwiz at all and if there is a chance of not being able to root it and get away from that terrible software I wouldn't want to take the risk.
[LG G5 Questions & Answers] panamaniac:
Yeah, I'm not big into custom roms, actually. Too much work! When you say stock roms here, are you including stock but rooted?

So basically you chose it because of your dislike for Touchwiz, not because of development potential? And when's the last time you interacted much with Touchwiz (I've never owned a Samsung but I hear people saying it's gotten a lot better, and accusing Touchwiz haters of not having tried recent versions...not saying that's the case with you but just trying to get a feel here.) I've got to two stores to demo the Galaxies but they are in retail mode so I can't really tell if I'll like it or not (which is super frustrating!!).
[LG G5 Questions & Answers] geeksmurf:
Being on Sprint you can count on there being less development for it's version than the others. But there should surely be some and able to take some advantage of things from other versions. Check the G4 and G3 too see how different the amount of stuff for Sprint is. Darn CDMA lol
