1. FASTBOOT ACCESSIBLE

2. BOOTLOADER LOCKED( can't unlock it because oem unlock is disabled)

3. Phone boots into system.. Internal storage is visible when connected to pc and can take screen shots using volume keys n viewed those screen shots from internal storage which shows that phone is currently on welcome page..

4. Phone vibrates when setting it to vibrate mode using volume keys

5.Tried qualcomm recovery tool n all 4 methods (except method 2 because link is broken) form [MENTION=5641921]Naman Bhalla[/MENTION] from one plus form mega guide but didn't work for me

6. Waiting for help

I would request developers or anyone how knows solution to please help me out...
[OnePlus 2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Brandon Indar:
Hi

Try this...

1. Reboot the phone to the bootloader (fastboot)

2. Connect phone to PC an run command

fastboot devices

to see if detected.

3. Run this command to wipe data/factory reset

fastboot -w

Hope it helped
[OnePlus 2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Manish Salian:
Will try this n will get back to you.. ?
[OnePlus 2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Manish Salian:
Didnt work for me ..m getting the error..
[OnePlus 2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Brandon Indar:
OK u say that u can boot into system but nothing is visible...if u boot into system an connect to pc, do u have access to adb?

Btw have u ever rooted or flash custom recovery like twrp before?
[OnePlus 2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Manish Salian:
I haven't rooted it no custom recovery.. When typed adb devices it shows

List of adb devices

(blank)

I can access internal storage once connected with pc..
[OnePlus 2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Brandon Indar:
U can take screenshots an view it on ur pc?

If so u can try navigate to settings an enable OEM unlock by viewing the screenshots[emoji3]

Songs weird but that's only way since u hav no adb access[emoji13]
[OnePlus 2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Manish Salian:
Buddy since I tried to flash using qualcomm tools it flashed a new system ( with no display) so now it's currently on the welcome page n I can't go ahead.. I can't navigate using touch because screen is blank..

Just wanted to ask if I flash a rom with oem unlock enabled before hand then will I be able to unlock bootloader?
[OnePlus 2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Brandon Indar:
Have u tried this http://xdaforums.com/oneplus-2/general/oneplus-solution-hard-bricked-device-t3183449

There's not much u can do since u don't have adb access and ur bootloader is locked.

All I can say is to try different recovery packages an hope it work [emoji106]
[OnePlus 2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Brandon Indar:
Yes...

But normally any rom u flash, u will still have to go in settings an enable it.

The only way u can flash rom is via the recovery tool. The recovery tool also installs twrp recovery. Since ur bootloader is locked it probably brick the recovery.

If u get a rom to boot successfully proceed in unlocking the bootloader.
[OnePlus 2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Manish Salian:
I have tried this but same story.. It boots but display isn't visible.. ?
[OnePlus 2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Brandon Indar:
Well lastly try booting into fastboot then run the command " fastboot continue " and see if u can boot into recovery.

If not well u will have to replace the system.img and boot.img in the recovery tool with another rom.
[OnePlus 2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Manish Salian:
Yeah will try to replace system n boot.img with different roms.. Will let you know.. :)

[OnePlus 2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] turai:
If recovery does the same, this is a hardware issue.

I guess you are from India, so take your device to a service center. In case your warranty has expired, go for the 3T, replacing the mainboard does not worth the money.
[OnePlus 2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Manish Salian:
Do you know what kind of hardware issue could be?
[OnePlus 2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] turai:
My guess is GPU or RAM, but I have never seen a phone acting like this, so this might not be accurate.
[OnePlus 2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Manish Salian:
I don't think ram is the issue.. :p don't know about if GPU is the issue.. But what I feel is that it's a a software issue
[OnePlus 2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] turai:
If you think you know it better, why do you ask me, then?

Replace the software and the problem persists, it IS hardware (except the IMEI issue, that relies on NV and stuff). You don't have to belive me, take it to a service center, there are qualified technicians, not just wannabe flashaholics, who flash every shady zip out there, like 90% of ppl here. Period.

Please help. I have changed battery, one off switch and internal power cable and USB Charger Charging Port Flex Cable for OnePlus Two, not external usb cable. please help and advice.
[OnePlus 2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] anupritaisno1:
You can hex-edit the factory reset protection partition (config.bin file in the unbrick tool) and flash it through the unbrick tool to make the bootloader think OEM unlock is enabled. It is usually the last byte of that partition but I'm not very sure

Also this seems like a graphics card issue

Explanation: bootloader -> generic display driver used

Bootanimation -> /vendor is up (yes I know op2 has no vendor partition and it's /system/vendor) and proprietary drivers are loaded

It seems his issue starts when the proprietary driver loads. This obviously means it's a hardware issue
[Google Pixel Questions & Answers] baka2x:
Openvpn is working fine with WiFi connections, but nothing comes through on a mobile data connection. The app (https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=de.blinkt.openvpn) shows a successful connection. Running stock 7.1.1 NMF26O.

Has this been an issue for anybody else?
[Google Pixel Questions & Answers] Majesty00:
Hello,

I have the exact same issue.
[Google Pixel Questions & Answers] mattkroeder:
I googled and found this thread. I'm having this same problem except on a Pixel XL and the same OpenVPN client. I'm in Canada on Telus LTE

Did you setup your Pixel as a new device when you got it or did you transfer settings from another phone? I'm wondering if that's the culprit for me. I transferred settings from my 6P to my Pixel XL and I can barely connect to any of my VPNs via my LTE connection now. Sometimes they'll work for a few seconds, although very slowly, and then just die.

Now I'm considering wiping the XL clean and starting over to see if it fixes it

Hoping someone else has had this issue and has come up with the fix.
[Google Pixel Questions & Answers] Majesty00:
I've set it as a new device and used the option to reinstall the apps I had on another phone (Nexus 5X).

Funny thing, I'm also with Telus. That said, I want to exclude it as being the culprit. I also have a OnePlus X (running Marshmallow) and when I put my SIM card in it, the VPN works flawlessly.

My problem is a bit more weird than yours, though. I can connect to my VPN (and stay connected), but I can't access any services on my Synology NAS (where the OpenVPN server is set up). I can ping every devices on my LAN, including the NAS. I read on the Google forum that some people were having difficulties with IPSEC and the Pixel. Google said it was fixed and we just need to wait for it to be released (Feb. Security patch, maybe??).

I've spoken with Synology's support, but they don't acknowledge the problem being on their side. I've also set a L2TP VPN and no luck...
[Google Pixel Questions & Answers] suparuss:
I am able to use OpenVPN on LTE no problem
[Google Pixel Questions & Answers] hypatia1:
I have no problem using OpenVPN to my own VPS server.
[Google Pixel Questions & Answers] mattkroeder:
I think I may have found the problem although it's till early when it comes to testing it. I've only been messing around with it for a few minutes. So far, I can now load everything I couldn't prior to this.

I still want to pop my sim card back into my 6P to see there's a difference in settings. Since we're both on Telus, I'm hoping I have found the cause.

The problem may be stemming from ipv6. I noticed my XL was getting an ipv6 address from Telus whereas my 6P never did. Or at least, I never noticed. So, I went into APN settings on the XL and under the APN Protocol setting, I changed it to ipv4. I saved the APN and then let the phone reconnect to the network. Now, so far, everything seems to work.

It's possible it's an openvpn routing issue with ipv6 so there may be a setting there that can be changed instead of our APN settings but I'm not sure. Maybe you try it out and see if it helps you as well.
[Google Pixel Questions & Answers] Majesty00:
I can't seem to be able to modify any settings of the pushed APNs... One is named TELUS ISP and the other, TELUS SP. I've also tried to create a new APN following settings from TELUS (https://apn-canada.gishan.net/settings/1620_3_telus_mobility_apn_settings_for_google_pixel.php).

How did you do to modify the pushed APNs??
[Google Pixel Questions & Answers] mattkroeder:
I had that issue too. Honestly, I'm not sure what triggered it but I selected the Telus ISP APN. Then I changed preferred network type to 3G. Then I eventually changed it back to LTE and somehow the Telus SP APN was now modifiable.

It is true that "Speaker-Bost" APP will boost the speaker volume of the BLU R1 HD?

I am very interested in purchasing this BLU 2GB/16GB Cellphone from Amazon, but as I have read many complaints regarding the very low sound produced by it small rear speaker, I would like to know if someone has tried the "Speaker Bost" APP:

You can use engineering mode on a non rooted device. My phone is non rooted and I used it no problem.

It does absolutely make it louder, however, hardware is hardware, you can only pus a speaker that small so much
[BLU R1 HD Questions & Answers] theredbaron1834:
If it still matters, I use speakerboost on mine often, works fine.

However, with root so does Viper, which gets loudly and sounds better.
[BLU R1 HD Questions & Answers] gtcharlie:
Can someone point me to a guide to using engineer mode on a non rooted phone? I would love to increase the volume of the headphone jack if possible. Really the one thing I don't like about the phone is the low volume of my music playing through my Napster app. Thanks.
[BLU R1 HD Questions & Answers] Tiggam:
Go to play store

Install mtk engineering shortcut app

Launch

Swipe over to hardware

Choose audio

Choose normal

Set max vol to 150

Go back

Choose headset

Set max vol to 150

Done
[BLU R1 HD Questions & Answers] gtcharlie:
thanks for the quick response. worked perfectly. my question is this-- why do phones like the R1 come with the setting unreasonably low (at least in my opinion)? Does increasing the max vol number simply boost the inherent volume level that is built into the phone or is something artificial done which could lead to distortion? Very cursory listening does not indicate this is the case.
[BLU R1 HD Questions & Answers] Tiggam:
Increases the built in volume, no idea why it is so low to start.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] blasstock:
Hello guys,

My phone hard bricked when I was trying to install a factory room, I accidentally moved all my files including system to my sd card and after that I was unable to start my cellphone and when I tried to reinstall the room something went wrong and now I can't access the download screen.

I want to know if there's anyway to solve this without a jig.

I saw this post and I think it can be the answer but it seems that no one has ever made a brick recovery image to the model of my cellphone.

[Nexus 5X General] RusherDude:
Secure Boot (aka S-ON, aka other names) is the responsible for checking and validating the entire chain of trust from the psychical bootloader (BootRom) to the Android Bootloader (aboot). From there on, validating boot.img (kernels) and recoveries are checked via the lock/unlock state of the device, and validating system is duty of the Verified Boot (dm-verity) feature on the kernel.

Unlike the old days with the Nexus One and its S-OFF achievement (for reformatting the nand and others), I haven't seen any S-OFF or bootloader/radio development on any Nexus device from that point. Has been any exception for the N5X for some rare chance?

I know that disabling Secure Boot wouldn't be much useful considering there doesn't seem to be any radio or bootloader development at all, but the truth is that without the chance to flash and test it no development can appear from the nothing either. I honestly do not have any idea if by chance secure boot was disabled, anyone will jump into developing a better radio or more feature rich bootloader..

Just wondering, has this been ever attempted or anything? It seems that any HTC is attacked in this sense, but others aren't, even if Nexus are considered development freely, the truth is that they're all S-ON by default and no development of a radio or a bootloader seems to be in place ever. If It was able to happen with the Nexus One, why not for latter nexus devices?

And I don't agree to the point of "we don't need Secure Boot disabled because we would be able to really brick our Nexuses!!", because you can still brick any nexus by flashing any (signed) bootloader or radio from another device, for example N5 bootloader into a N5X (and a ton of more examples with other signed images, and let's not talk about inside android with root.. literally the first Nexus 5/5X were bricked by kernel auto uploaders because they had hardcoded the partition for the kernel, and it happened to be the bootloader one on the new device..). The S-ON check is only to guarantee you don't flash unauthorized stuff from the point of view of Google, not for your security of not bricking the device at all.
[Nexus 5X General] jugoslavpetrovic:
Agree:)
[Nexus 5X General] throcker:
there is really no point here because we can actually flash anything without any problem...

on htc devices (I had last 5 year's flagships, so I know something about it) you need it to flash unsigned factory images, zips with firmware files, change your phone's id and in some cases (htc one x) even flash a kernel from recovery! yes, you had to flash manually boot.img every time you change kernel/rom

but here...really....no need, unless some really crazy guy wants to make a bootloader from scratch and load something like windows phone
[Nexus 5X General] RusherDude:
I agree on that we don't "need" it for basic rom flashing stuff, but your last line defines why it would be awesome to have it. It would give out options not only to "boot Windows", but also add features to the bootloader, repartition as we please (reduce system partition after debloating), adding a mechanism to prevent any bricking by adding a safe first bootloader sequence (like it was done for the N7 2012, via nv flashing if I don't remember bad), stuff like removing the damn bootloader unlock orange or other warnings (not only changing the images but also deleting the damn timeouts at boot), being able to add passwords for bootloaders, and a ton more **** could be done.

And let's not talk about "Radios". That garbage partition is a GIANT security hole and for the worse it boots BEFORE the main cpu and controls everything, from the application cpu to the memory it's using. Literally the radio controls the phone, it's the most important partition, it's FULL of backdoors (like the Replicant guys demonstrated for the Nexus S/Galaxy S2), it's FULL of unintended security holes (because no one develops for it decently, there have been some hacking conferences having fun at them) and it's the worst we all having running on the phone right now. It doesn't matter your Android Version or security patch date, you have security holes that date from years ago opened and being probably exploited by goverments as we speak.

There are great devs around, the bootloaders are usually decompiled to find exploits to be unlocked, for S-OFF and a lot of stuff. I'm sure people could jump on radio cleaning and fixing. There is a great community and great potential unused.

Until we fix the radio and the BL, "our" N5X is not our phone. Secure Boot should be killed and development would take place.
[Nexus 5X General] lagren:
Really interesting ! Thanks
[Nexus 5X General] RusherDude:
Aww, no one is interested in this :(.

Sometimes I wish that the Nexus weren't so unlocked and that we would need S-OFF to even flash custom roms, so a lot more development would appear, like it did for the Nexus One.
[Nexus 5X General] jugoslavpetrovic:
Well, I really dont see such a point of locking down the choice. If I buy something, then its mine. So what I do with mine should really be mine choice, dispite warranty. If I break it, its still mine.
[Nexus 5X General] RusherDude:
Yes, this is the point, but we are accepting nowdays devices that are full-locked except some partitions for us to play with. All is good while the bootloader is completely locked on and the radio is even more untouchable, literally making everyone able to spy on us.

The funniest part is that only "we", the users, are locked. Because I am expecting malware to grow up to the point that it will be able to get root, then unlock, then turn secure boot OFF, and then overwrite the bootloader and radio in a ransomware form blocking the boot of the device until payment is done or something like that.
[Nexus 5X General] jugoslavpetrovic:
Exactly. Scary. That reminded me of a movie I have seen recently called Zero Day.
[Nexus 5X General] RusherDude:
I wonder if it's as easy as flipping some bits like for unlocking bootloader..

[MENTION=4551856]segv11[/MENTION] [MENTION=4544860]osm0sis[/MENTION] , hey guys! you both worked for BootUnlocker, so you may know something about this :P: do you know if a value is stored in memory to control "Secure Boot enabled" or "Secure boot disabled" like for bootloader locked or unlocked? Have you ever found this or something related by accident? Thanks!
[Nexus 5X General] osm0sis:
Don't think so.. that's all secure bootchain stuff.. some is open source and some is not.

Google the following: lk bootloader

That's what the LG devices use if I recall correctly. Checking out some of the public source will be your best bet of finding if it even possibly can be disabled.
