This is a Redmi 3S running Miui 8 Global 6.9.22 Beta

I've occasionally noticed chinese notifications popping up on my phone, and also on an older Redmi 3 Pro that I have. A post on the Mi boards shows these to be coming from some ad app. It's 'msa'. I've frozen this in Titanium backup and there appear to be no resulting issues so far...

okay now I am starting to get lost and the guide for ''fixing your IMEI number'' caused my phone to soft-brick once again so it didn't really help

and yes I used the most recent SuperSU (stable) version V2.78 (I hope that is a correct version)

http://xdaforums.com/oneplus-one/general/steps-how-to-recover-bad-imei-t3171452

my baseband gives a I think correct version but my IMEI number still is ''0''

Please!, can anyone tell me how to restore my IMEI number?

Have you downgraded earlier??
[X Play Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Dio-Genes:
As far as I remember that happened to me when I tried to relock the bootloader at that moment. Did it work anyway? I mean, did it reboot? Which image did you choose? 5.1 or 6.x? Probably start with 5.1 as this was the original image for the device and later let it update via OTA. Be sure still to grab the appropriate image.
[X Play Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dempixels:
According to the Motorola official developer forums I am not ALLOWED to install a android 5.X image when I last ran a 6.X android system. as the result could be that I could Hard brick my device

also some further info:

I think in the past when I tried to install the official stock rom. I accidentally removed/erased the EFS file. or some file that holds my IMEI information.

and now I practically have to re-write it (since.. well you can't just create a IMEI ID or Can I?). but it seems impossible if I look at it.

but I do have the original box with the original IMEI number.
[X Play Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dempixels:
no I didn't downgrade earlier. (well i flashed a different logo.bin) but no I didn't downgrade.

so that means the superSU 2.78 does not work on android 6.X?
[X Play Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Dio-Genes:
Sorry, that's beyond my knowledge.
[X Play Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bablu048:
Idk about su2.78... I have always used su2.62-3 ..it worked on lollipop and it works on MM.

What is the need of updating SU app, all it does is give 'root' permissions.
[X Play Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dempixels:
okay, because you have more experience rooting I am gonna ask you just to be sure.

correct me if i'm wrong:

first I have to flash twrp thingy

next I have to reboot android and copy SuperSU into my storage

then I have to reboot in fastboot and boot into twrp

in twrp I have to flash/install SuperSU into the system.

and.. that's it. so superSU practically roots my device?

oh and from what i've heard/seen I will not be able to update anymore? because when I installed/flash superSU I saw in the log:

''disabling OTA update survival'' or something like that
[X Play Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bablu048:
Yes correct, After flashing twrp take a backup(to be on the safe side) then install su.
[X Play Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dempixels:
alright 2 final questions before I am gonna start the whole flashing again

1. does this superSU version work with 6.0.1? (just to be sure)

2.what does it backup to be precise? only the system or everything (probably everything)
[X Play Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dempixels:
YES!! it's rooted thanks for the guide but now... ermm.. how do I change my IMEI number?
[X Play Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dempixels:
and.... nevermind.. it did not root!... what?

I don't understand I followed the steps on how to install superSU with systemless.. something and it all worked. but it did not root! how is that possible?

do I have to try it again?
[X Play Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bablu048:
you dont have su app even after flashing su2.62-3??

[Mogul, XV6800 ROM Development] Sturatt:
Hey guys,

I just got my mogul and am just starting to mess around with it. I am looking at custom roms, and would like to understand what they are doing, and eventually figure out how to make my own.

I am having trouble understanding how the rom file works. I downloaded one of dcd's clean rom to have a look at it, but i cant get past the 02_OS.nb file. what is this file, and how do I interpret it? Is there some program that i can use to extract it (if it even works like that)? I found the nbh extractor program on the wiki, but i cant find anything to do with the nb files on the wiki, or through the search function for that matter.

Thanks for any help,

Stuart
[Mogul, XV6800 ROM Development] jjlwork:
Sturatt,

What you are trying to do takes quite a bit of research and lots of getting stuck trying to figure things out. It sounds like you are very new to this and if that is the case I would definately do a lot more reading first. I got into making my own roms based on others roms within kitchens and it took me about a month or two to say I actually understand what I am doing and I still don't know how to do a lot of things.

Anyway if you don't want to spend tons of time messing with roms I would suggest getting a rom that has alrady been built by guys that have tons of knowledge such as DCD's roms, Custels roms, Colonels roms etc. The first two have postings on this forum, there are others at the ppcgeeks forum.

That being said if you do want to spend the time check out http://forum.ppcgeeks.com/showthread.php?t=10401 this is a discussion on what you are trying to do and there are some links to tutorials.
[Mogul, XV6800 ROM Development] xweaponx:
+1

Start with downloading and learning to install custom pre-made ROMs. Read all relevant material as links to other discussion boards are just about everywhere. With custom ROMs, you can find a base that you like and as you develop your ROM skills, you can take it to the next level by further tweaking a ROM to suit your needs.

Research, some trial & error, make plenty of back-ups and prepare to do some hard resetting!
[Mogul, XV6800 ROM Development] Sturatt:
Awesome, thanks guys. I realize it is going to be pretty tough, but i would rather learn it and understand what is going on, so no i dont mind reading a ton of stuff, i was just having trouble finding the stuff to read.

jjlwork and xweaponx thanks for the good advice. and If anyone else has some good articles/links for a beginner in this area, or anything interesting, please post away! In the mean time ill read that thread you posted, and look for more like it.

Thanks again,

Stuart

[XDA Assist] Crazyerchris:
I have some random Chinese made tablet that I have tried and failed at to find firmware for (posted here as well and no one else could find it either). My problem is that the device is stuck in a boot loop from a bad android install file (I believe as the boot loop happens during the OS install phase)

My question is if I can extract the firmware from the device can I manually fix the android install file?

My device is a Infinity 9" Tablet (infintytablets is the website)
[XDA Assist] :
Hello,

You need to flash the stock firmware for your device in order to fix the boot.

[XDA Assist] Crazyerchris:
Well yea I get that, but read my post Firmware doesn't exist or I can't find it.
[XDA Assist] :
Hello,

Do you mean an application when you said Bad Android install?

If you have adb, you can just remove it.

You can also try to contact your OEM someway if they have stock firmware for your device.

Regards

Vatsal,

Forum Moderator.
[XDA Assist] Crazyerchris:
When I received the device I turned it on and it started the android setup once it got to the part to restart the tablet it went into the loop so I assume it's a bad OS install file.

Contacted the OEM they are worthless and won't give me the firmware to flash it.

So I'm trying to think outside the box here before I trash it. I saw somewhere online that I can possibly extract the firmware from the device so I was wondering if it was possible to extract it and repair it myself
[XDA Assist] :
If your device wont boot and you do not have a custom recovery the only thing you can try is adb. Try type in terminal adb pull /system/

it will only work if usb debugging was enabled I think

Good luck

[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note5] dellaximsquid:
As the title says, the back button nor the recent apps button work. Long story short, I have been running rooted stock Lollipop 5.1.1 with a VR specialized kernel for the Gear VR. All has worked flawlessy for almost 12 months.

A few months ago, I must have dropped the phone as the back was cracked, the pen was cracked, and the camera autofocus had a hard time starting up. I decided to replace the camera and the back cover. In the course of heating up the glue to remove the back cover, I accidentally turned on the phone which did come on but acted extremely slow and weird. I did get it turned off again. I then was able to physically perform the surgery to which looks awesome. I then started up the phone and verified the new camera works like brand new. Only issue is the back button, recent apps button, and the S case.

I thought maybe the rom was corrupted so I wiped with twrp 3 times and then reinstalled the firmware as well as kernel. Still have the same issue. In searching I found the "*#2663#" to which I was able to run the tsp update. Still not working. I then looked at the keyboard files with a root explorer to make sure key 127 had no # sign in front. It did not.

I am at a loss. Did I bork the hardware somehow with the heat? I am really thinking it is software related but at this point, I am stuck.

Any ideas?
[LG V20 Questions & Answers] erikk:
I JUST got a replacement v20 (like literally sent back my first V20 on thursday) for a v20 that wasn't quick charging. And I left it on top of a car when pulling out of a gas station and it fell off and promptly got run over. First cellphone I've ever actually broken or even cracked a screen on. So annoying.

Anyway, the phone was still working using my bluetooth headset but I didn't realize and the battery died shortly after. I'd like to try and backup a few things on the phone before switching over to my insurance replacement (specifically let Whatsapp backup automatically run at 3am and backup SMS messages) but I have the PIN required on restart option set. Everything I find online about getting an android phone unlocked with a broken screen seems to be talking about the screenlock and not the PIN on restart feature. Before I go buy an OTG breakout cable to use a mouse and HDMI monitor will that even work with PIN on restart? Can I connect to the phone with ADB before it actually boots into android (and set the USB connection as something other than only charge; not even sure I've set USB debugging yet since the phone is so new for me)?

It won't be the end of the world if I can't get into the broken phone, my photos are automatically backed up to Google drive, all my contacts, emails, tasks, calendar etc are cloud based (exchange server or gmail). Really the only thing I'd lose would be SMS's since last week, whatsapp since last backup, and my call log. But that would be really annoying to my pseudo OCD; I have an uninterrupted record of every text message I've ever gotten since treo in 2004.

Any help much appreciated.
[LG V20 Questions & Answers] jeep447:
I can't say for sure if it'll work or not but if it were mine the first thing I'd personally try would be (which you mentioned) an OTG with a USB keyboard or mouse. I'm crazy OCD myself so I know exactly what you mean about your unbroken backup of messages, I've basically done the same thing and like you said it wouldn't be the end of the world if I had to miss some.. but it would still suck nonetheless!

Thanks. yeah I ordered an OTG adapter for HDMI and USB off amazon. Figure if it doesn't work for this, at least it's a good thing to have. And if it doesn't work at all for the V20 amazon'll take it back.
[LG V20 Questions & Answers] jeep447:
I'm pretty positive that the OTG adapter will at least work in general (not sure if it'll work for your situation but hopefully it does) because I basically made my own OTG adapter and it works just fine with mine. I made the adapter years ago by cutting off the female end of an old usb extension cable I had and splicing it together with the male end of an old micro usb cable, and then to use it with this phone all I had to do was plug the micro usb end into a usb c adapter and it still works just like it should. So I'd say if my Frankenstein setup still works then you shouldn't have a problem with yours at all lol.
