[Xiaomi Redmi 3 Questions & Answers] Zekino:
Good afternoon,

I have Xiaomi RedMi 3 Pro with official MIUI 8 6.9.1 by miuios.cz (official Czech translated multilingual ROM) and I have a big problem - everyone can unlock this phone using unauthorised fingerprints that are not scanned and saved as trusted. I can unlock phone at the third attempt every time! And using almost every part of my body (yes, almost every part, trust me... :D ).

Fingerprint sensor can unlock authorised fingers too, it works, but sometimes other fingers or body parts can unlock phone too...

I did a FR after this update (wipe cache, dalvik, data) and didn't work. It is possible that I didn't notice this weird bug using older ROMs.

May I ask for your help? Fingerprint sensor makes my machine free-to-unlock for persistent thiefs and non-friendly persons :D Also, makes it like clear RedMi 3 (without PRO) :(

Thanx from Czech Republic.
[Xiaomi Redmi 3 Questions & Answers] Xstephl:
Normally after 3 attempts with a wrong finger, the unlock screen is displayed to be able to input the pass code or the pattern (In my case it's the pattern unlock screen).

So I'm wondering if you have correctly set a pass code or a pattern to unlock.
[Xiaomi Redmi 3 Questions & Answers] Zekino:
I think it was solved (I don't want to jinx it :D ) - the password (PIN) was set correctly, but in Settings was allowed 1 minute idle for unlocking without a password. I selected "no idle". That probably solved my problem :)

IMHO: Xiaomi needs to fix it, it is probably bug :)

Thanx a lot for your time! :)
[Xiaomi Redmi 3 Questions & Answers] ArmyOfGod:
It is actually not a bug. That feature is used so that users do not have to unlock the screen again in the selected amount of time, useful if they wanted to do something quick and removing the effort to unlock the phone by FP or any type of security. Cheers!

[XDA Assist] Lexington JR:
I've seen many people asking about the Allview A5 Easy and how to hard reset it without needing to go through the "This account was reset. To continue please log in with the account that was synced with the Phone". While browsing the internet i've found this video which helped me alot regarding the phone, but it's not the same as he does there.

So he does that on an Alcatel One Touch that has the keyboard built in with Google Search. On the Allview A5 Easy, when you get to the Gmail part you simply need to do this :

1. On the left bottom corner near the button that switches from letters to numbers you have the @ sign. Hold it down and you'll get the keyboard settings. Acces one of those settings.

2. While in the keyboard settings menu, hold the left digital button ( the one near the HOME Button ) till you get the opend windows manager.

3. From there you will see the keyboard settings tab and above it you'll see the Google Search bar. Click on it and type in Settings and it will pop up the settings app. Click it and then you will have full access to the phone settings and you can factory reset it without having the gmail trouble.

I can't post the link in here since i'm the "new kid on the playground"

I have purchased a new case for the prophet, it has arrived on time nodelay. I have followed the instruction found on the Russian website on how to change the case to the letter. After I have changed the case, i have found that if you press on the casing the touch screen loses its alignment, or something happens that stops the touch screen from accepting input.

Now i have tried the same trick with the cover on loosely and with our the cover on and i have discovered that it function properly.

Does any body have any experiance or any thoughts about this. it is really anoying:mad:

[Nexus 6P Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Pipiou211:
Hello XDA Community,

I am George and I bricked my Nexus 6P.

To be more accurate, this is what I've done (will try to list them by order):

1. Unlocked Bootloader, Rooted and installed TWRP custom recovery

2. Installed a working custom kernel

3. Installed a sound mod I found on a forum (can specify the sound mod, I am just not sure if it is allowed)

Boom, phone softbricked

4. Flashed factory image (through Nexus Root Toolkit by WugFresh)

Still softbricked

Done it again and again with different angler versions, while I was formatting everything before flashing.

Still softbricked, but recovery accessible

5. Locked bootloader ( ... I thought factory image needs bootloader locked for the very first boot ...)

So now I have a Nexus 6P that have Bootloader locked, when I simply start it (power button) it bootloops (about 10 seconds stuck at Google logo), with access to stock recovery and 6.0.1/MTC20F/3031278 OS version.

(PS: I was also letting the smartphone do the bootloop-like restarts after the factory image flashes for about 30 minutes.)

I need help, I bought the smartphone before 7 days and I acted childish ... :(

I've tried Rescue OTA Guide by Techno Bill but still exactly the same state. (adb sideload ota.zip)

(drive.google.com/file/d/0Bz6x7k-VkpUJRjl6WjRhVmdXU0E/view)

Best regards, George.
[Nexus 6P Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] markdexter:
I would, get into fastboot, unlock bootloader, then install twrp , go into recovery, and do a full wipe off everything! Even type in yes to format data, then reboot to bootloader from twrp reboot menu, then from there use wugs tool to flash stock MM it should boot for you.
[Nexus 6P Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] asif4self:
You shouldn't have relocked the bootloader. You are out of luck now, but I might be wrong. Some expert could shed light on this issue especially Heisenberg.
[Nexus 6P Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kyzn:
Just to check, you did enable OEM unlocking in Developer Options?
[Nexus 6P Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] defcondev:
Hi George,

Welcome to the XDA Forums;

Can you try the following and tell me what the result is?

1. Boot your device into the bootloader for fastboot

-If the phone is boot-looping, hold down the power button until the screen turns off, then hold VOLUME DOWN + Power

2. Plug your device into your PC

3. Open your command prompt and type fastboot devices

-If properly connected, you will see your devices serial #

4. Type fastboot flashing unlock

And then return here and post the results.

Thanks
[Nexus 6P Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] hutzdani:
If you relocked the bootloader it's game over man, no unlocked bootloader no fastboot commands.
[Nexus 6P Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Pipiou211:
I can run fastboot commands but I cannot "fastboot flashing unlock" because 'OEM Unlock' is not enabled INSIDE the broken OS of my phone :/ ...

[Nexus 6P Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tech_head:
Download the factory image.

You should not need the bootloader unlocked to flash a factory image.

The image is signed and unlocking the bootloader is necessary for unsigned images.
[Nexus 6P Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Pipiou211:
I already tried that, Im using flash-all.bat inside the factory.zip I download and by using fastboot, it informs me that the bootloader is locked, unable to flash ... :/

Is this possible? Factory image had to be possible to get flashed ..

PS: Google announced today the new update for my device, I should download the FULL OTA UPDATE (900+ mb) and adb sideload ota.zip?
[Nexus 6P Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] hutzdani:
If you can sideload the new update go ahead its worth a try but don't count your chickens because if the previous builds failed that are singed by google i'd say the chances of it working this time around are about 0.0000001%

"If you're upgrading a device running Lollipop or higher, make sure Enable OEM unlock is checked" is a phrase you can read for the last few years on many devices.

Its unfortunate for you but you have indeed learnt the hardway, however there is a bit of discussion about editing some values via the second bootloader (aboot) however this is for the N9 but if you can be bothered with twitting around . . . . per chance can you run "fastboot oem get_unlock_ability" ?

this would return this

No I cannot run the "fastboot flashing unlock" (Android 6.0.x new "fastboot oem unlock" command).

I am getting the error that actually the oem is locked.

Actually the real fastboot oem unlock as I can see does not exist, I have to do it from the inside (Android>Settings>Developer Options)

Soo .. let me take a look at the topic you gave me, Do I have to be rooted?

I cannot run adb shell command the only thing I can run is the sideload command ... :/

At this point, I would contact Google for a replacement. As far as I know, without enabling OEM unlocking, you cannot do anything.

You locked yourself out of any possible fix.

Anyway, I will inform you what happened!

[Nexus 6P Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] toknitup420:
That is a completely false statement. Flashing any images via fastboot requires an unlocked bootloader. This is and has always been true with nexus devices.
[Nexus 6P Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] defcondev:
That's an interesting thread and utility, but it looks like that's a flashable zip which would require TWRP to be installed with the locked bootloader.
[Nexus 6P Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tech_head:
I stand corrected.

Some devices allow flashing of factory signed images without an unlocked bootloader.

I guess the major blunder in the whole scenario is:

"5. Locked bootloader ( ... I thought factory image needs bootloader locked for the very first boot ...)"

PSA -> Once you start flashing.. NEVER, EVER RE-LOCK THE BOOTLOADER.
[Nexus 6P Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] blueyes:
Not necessarily, I've installed multiple zips simply by side loading. It's meant to be an emergency boot unlocker, situation like this definitely warrants. And I agree , any self updates would certainly require unlocking first. Google will even say so on their firmware download site.

Apologies to the thread... Apparently Tapatalk renamed me to "Brianp27".

[Nexus 6P Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tyea:
I was honest with Huawei in an email to their support, about me trying to fix the boot loop with a factory image, and they wrote back that any firmware tampering voids their warranty. I'll never know if this boot loop is hardware or software related, but if it it is software related, then I have proven that it is possible to brick a Nexus 6p.

I've read and tried every fix on XDA with no positive outcome, but I guess it will now be a tinkering hobby for me over the next year. I can view the recovery logs, so maybe they will give me a clue once I can decipher what it all means.
[Nexus 6P Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Pipiou211:
Thanks for telling us your experiances and sharing your knownledge guys,

Let me ask a question about my bricked Nexus 6P.

What about the new Nougat 7.0 OTA Update? Does it formats everything? Completely installing a new OS? Just like flashing a factory image package?

First officially announced Nougat OTA FULL Update (Nexus 6P): https://dl.google.com/dl/android/aosp/ryu-ota-nrd90m-69793d12.zip

Second officially announced Nougat OTA FULL Update (Nexus 6P): https://dl.google.com/dl/android/aosp/ryu-ota-nrd90r-d8c91d96.zip

Can someone explore those .zip files and let us know?

If I find free time I can try opening them, I'm newbie related to this through.

I'm looking if I should upgrade my current tv stick or not.

I have a 3 year old MK809 II, dual core, 1 Gb RAM, USB 2.0, Android 4.2.2.

H264 1080p movies work perfectly, 99% almost any video/audio format/codec.

I use MX Player Pro 1.7.28 with ARMv7 NEON codec.

I also use it for some Youtube, but I'm not sure whay is the maximum resolution: 720p or 1080p.

Youtube video play is OK, no stuttering at all. But general youtube search, web browser, any other operations - very laggy.

I have Fly Mouse Air Mouse RC11, works perfectly, it's a keeper.

I have a smart TV Samsung 46" 1080p. I will NOT get 4K TV any time soon.

Problems with current stick:

* small 32 Gb micro SD card. I cannot bauy another card, because I have 3 USB 3.0 64 Gb flash stick.

They do not work with the Air Mouse, already tried 2 different USB hubs.

* file copy speed too low - wifi, android FTP server.

I have tried several FTP servers/clients, 2 different routers - nothing helped.

* no H265 decoding. It looks like that's the future.

* old unit, old android, old interface....

Reasons to upgrade:

* USB 3.0 + [gigabit] Ethernet.

* H265 decoding

* 2 Gb RAM, Anndroid 6 / Windows 10

* faster operations

Flashing XOS rom on Android one​

This is for people who do not want to flash infinix rom, or they don't know how to, or they found it a difficult task!

Some informations:

Android one has a small system partition approximately 1.80 GB, so when you try to flash some roms it will fail because of low space.

Usually the workaround for this is flashing infinix rom via SP flash tool (select format + download) it will change your phone partition table giving you a bigger system parition.

Even though this task is very easy, I get so many messages from people complaining about bootloops, or they couldn't flash infinix rom and they soft bricked their devices.. some other flashed infinix rom via custom recovery and they wonder why XOS bootloop for them * facepalm *

Workaround for you

1- Download XOS rom

2- Unzip it

3- Delete META-INF folder.

4- Download META-INF from attachments, unzip it to rom directory)

5- Go to system/app and delete some apps to free some space, for example you can delete (Chrome, Hangouts, Youtube, & userguide.. etc)

6- Make sure that system folder size is less than 1.80 GB (1.70 or 1.60 GB just in case)

7- zip the rom back

8- Flash it, it should boot.

Notice: current bugs in the rom cannot be fixed, I won't provide further updates.

[Infinix HOT 2] Mysteryagr:
I didn't test SD Card actually, I flashed the rom via Dual boot patcher and it breaks SD card on MM roms.

2- it doesn't seem to work, didn't find a solution yet.
[Infinix HOT 2] farrasto7:
why just stuck in booting?:crying:
[Infinix HOT 2] Mysteryagr:
Because you didn't follow the instructions, are you on Android one rom?

Android one rom has small system partition

Android one system partition = 1.82 GB

XOS rom size = 1.88 GB

It will fail if you try to install it on Android one rom.

You need to flash Infinix rom first via SP flash tool, it will modify partition table and you will have bigger system partition.

And do not flash root, it either bootloop or doesn't grant permissions.
[Infinix HOT 2] Toluene15:
The ROM installation takes a lot of time(abt 20min). I almost aborted it. I tot it had freezed because it stood still at 'formating system' but later continued.

The bootloop occurred when I tried rooting the ROM so don't root it yet after installation. :cool:
