[Honor 8 Questions & Answers] linom:
Do you mean those spots on zooming in? I have been through 2 beta-Nougat updates, but its not yet resolved. I will factory reset over this weekend and check.
[Honor 8 Questions & Answers] DarkGuyver:
Did you experience this problem when you were using the original version of android that came preinstalled on your device? If you did then it's probably a hardware problem. Which can only be fixed by the manufacturer.
[Honor 8 Questions & Answers] linom:
Ok, before I factory reset, I just realized that RAW format is completely fine. However the same jpegs are showing these dead pixels (or bright spots). Is this something s/w related or hardware? Are the raw images processed by s/w or sensor & s/w?
[Honor 8 Questions & Answers] CronaMell:
It's a software issue, don't worry.

If RAW images are fines, then it's just a problem of processing when taking a JPEG photo :)

An update should fix this
[Honor 8 Questions & Answers] linom:
Some images rendered perfect while images taken in bright light show these spots/pixels. I did check my initial pics and most of them turn out to be fine. Also, as I mentioned in my later post, the Raw formats are good, but their jpegs are with these spots.

[MENTION=7958551]CronaMell[/MENTION], thanks. I will still reset and update here. It will be an expensive affair to send this device back to China from India. It's better I sell it off here.
[Honor 8 Questions & Answers] CronaMell:
It's better for you, and when you buy a device make sure it's officially supported in your country (like honor 8) :).

All the best
[Honor 8 Questions & Answers] DarkGuyver:
I'd contact Honor directly and ask them about the problem. Maybe they will release a software patch for it. But I have never heard the Honor 8 had this problem.
[Honor 8 Questions & Answers] linom:
I just did a factory reset. The issue persists. Is there a way I could downgrade to EMUI 4.1 rom? I am on Nougat beta and that could be still an issue which I need to exclude. Factory reset keeps the same version of the ROM, I need to downgrade to EMUI 4.1 (Marshmallow) and check.
[Honor 8 Questions & Answers] linom:
Also, I suspect the raw images are not processed correctly. Is there a way to change any library associated with image processing? I am able to process raw files on my computer without any issues. I am not rooted, but willing to take that step if it solves this issue.
[Honor 8 Questions & Answers] CronaMell:
Unfortunately, we don't know the exact files (libs that are responsible for image processing)
[Honor 8 Questions & Answers] DarkGuyver:
You would have to contact Honor directly for instructions on how to restore Marshmallow back onto your device. They will also be able to provide you with a link to the Marshmallow firmware for your device.

sorry for my mistake, I do not intend to comment here

@EjÄ‘iSixo

How to remove the "signed" of system image or bypass it? Fastboot or RSD are stuck at flashing system image. Does this "sign" relate to boot, recovery, partition? Or it's simply the "sign" to prevent downgrade???

I've never succeeded with partition downgrade...

---------- Post added at 10:29 PM ---------- Previous post was at 10:19 PM ----------

when I was flashing the only system.img (3GB), it said that "wrong at header magi". But after a bit time, fastboot separated the file and began to flash. But still failed because of signed image.

I've tried to remove the code from updater-script but it could not write files to system
[Verizon Motorola Droid Turbo General] EjđiSixo:
Not out yet!
[Verizon Motorola Droid Turbo General] EjđiSixo:
Thanks! I think if we all try , we can do it ! For now main focus is downgrading anyhow, even to half working Lollipop just in the purpose of unlocking bootloader with sunshine.

[MENTION=4588795]mr_5kool[/MENTION]

Feel free to comment and ask / suggest, thats what this topic is for!

Unforutenately thats the part I haven't yet figured out myself. It is a " permissions" to prevent the downgrade , bootloader and possibly something else checks current version / keys / properly signed image and then flashes. With other bootloader I'm still not able to flash it because it's obviously locked. Motorola probably signs their images differently.

You can't flash 3GB image because when flashing, phone recieve's partition first to ram so max download size is set to 255mb per file. You have to repack system.img to sparse chunks. But you don't have to bother with it , I already repacked system.img which I found at fully stock flashable MCG24.251-5 . It again failed due to invalid signed image . If we could figure out what is exactly signed and how , that would open a lot more possibilities. Possibly even flashing prerooted roms on locked bootloader. There are more possibilities , who knows..

Currently the only thing notices downgrade when flashing is recovery. In bootloader log says I tried to downgrade. Even with downgraded bootloader (kind of, there is sbl2 and sbl3 but they don't get upgraded )
[Verizon Motorola Droid Turbo General] EjđiSixo:
Anyway, I tried something just for the "gags" . Flashed all partitions of XT1250 bootloader. Got to Motorola's site, posted "unlock bootloader data". It returned it's not unlockable of course.. The first sequence of numbers in data is your imei , it starts with 99 and it's verzion's specific imei.

My theory is that motorola ties unlock bootloader data to every phone and imei and stores it in database ( please confirm) . So even with moto maxx bootloader I can't unlock because :

1 it reads my verzion imei

2 it doesn't find alltogether data in the database..

I don't know what are other numbers in the data you get from fastboot, possibly some serial numbers and so on, haven't really checked it .. That's why i think this method is not possible at all for now. Manipulating that data in your phone and running it through motorola's site knowing that exact same code works for some device might be possible, but I think there is really way too much impossible messing involved. If somebody can share more about this?

I've renamed it like suggested in the post #11

Download link is at 1st page. It's just a OTA.
[Verizon Motorola Droid Turbo General] EjđiSixo:
Yes I just renamed it.

IT DOESN'T WORK WITH ADB AND YOU CAN'T FLASH IT AGAIN THROUGH RECOVERY. ITS OTA.
[Verizon Motorola Droid Turbo General] TheSt33v:
EDIT: The post that I was responding to has been removed.
[Verizon Motorola Droid Turbo General] mr_5kool:
The method to downgrade from Lollipop to Kitkat is the same with what I've done. It may be possible. Some said that "impossible to downgrade with locked bootloader on vrz". So the system image may be signed with bootloader (or imei, serial or something else, god know).

The unlock method of Sunshine takes place in Trustzone (sbl2). They cannot get unlock code.
[Verizon Motorola Droid Turbo General] EjđiSixo:
You succesfully downgraded LL to KK on droid? There is partition for trust zone alone "tz.mbn" , downgradable without any problem. I only see sbl1 get's upgraded on droid turbo , never saw in any firmware sbl2 or 3 yet.. So I'm little confused.. I remember I saw some PDF regarding that..

[Verizon Motorola Droid Turbo General] EjđiSixo:
Finally managed to *Brick my devices while trying to make latest sbf firmware (what an irony ) because used some of files from that stupid OTA . Tried flashing all possible firmware I have but it doesn't fix it so system got corrupted probably and for now didn't succed flashing any of the available systems. Flashing MM recovery doesn't help. It's a " recovery loop".

Basically phone starts , vibrates , goes into recovery, it says "erasing" , it does the factory reset then restarts and over and over again erasing restarting loop.

I'll continue exploring downgrade options but top priority now is making working marshmallow sbf or waiting for stupid Verzion to release it already. Just checked with SUA and it still doesn't show repair so firmware isn't available still.

Biggest problem is signed system images which are probably signed by RSA and I need help with that..
[Verizon Motorola Droid Turbo General] hamza_iraki:

[Verizon Motorola Droid Turbo General] EjđiSixo:

[Verizon Motorola Droid Turbo General] mr_5kool:
[MENTION=5635882]EjđiSixo[/MENTION]

I have never tried before. My Moto X2013 failed to downgrade from LL to KK, too. So, it's the common problem of Verizon Motorola Devices.

If you have problem with "erasing", just enter recovery by "hold power button for a while then fast press volume up button". Phone will enter recovery and do the factory reset. But when rebooting the system, "erasing" appear again.

If partition is dead, flash the higher version, commonly gpt and tz.

PS: still waiting for the official xml firmware
[Verizon Motorola Droid Turbo General] EjđiSixo:
I wonder if there is any way to force Verizon to release firmware. This is really low of the lowest, it says 1 week after OTA , now it's almost 1 month. Until somebody forces them , it can be months as far as they are considered. No help from developers / programmers either on any of 2 subjects so don't see my method of full MM SBF working.

I can downgrade from Marshmallow to lollipop is very easy for my ..

Yeah people , we all know everything can be done with unlocked bootloader. It's a GOD mode. Nothing strange about downgrading with unlocked BL.

[Verizon Motorola Droid Turbo General] ChazzMatt:
Yes, the first time I typed in my data Motorola website told me my device was NOT eligible for unlocking! I had mis-typed something and did it again. Others have reported the same issue, where they posted here on XDA frantically saying their XT1225/XT1250 was not eligible! Relax, you typed something wrong!

See here:

Indian Variant bootloader question

http://xdaforums.com/moto-maxx/help/indian-variant-bootloader-question-t3359089

Then Motorola emails you the unlock code almost immediately, if you do everything right.

See here for another recent incident in my guide thread.
[Verizon Motorola Droid Turbo General] EjđiSixo:
Thanks a lot for the codes.. Now looking at them it's as hard as I thought it to be.. Codes seem to be completely random 20 digits and letters. I was hoping they are more in some similar pattern like first 3 letters , last 2 letters.. That would cut the finding time in half..

That makes it even more impossible to use motorola's site to get code with manipulated data.

So basically , you typed fastboot "oem unlock <20 characters code>" and it reported success? Or there is some other procedure?

Would you mind sending me on PM just the 3rd "line" of unlock_data? If no , don't worry about it. I want to see if there is any relation to the code on any way...
[Verizon Motorola Droid Turbo General] ChazzMatt:
It's way more than 20 characters.

You get 5 lines of alphanumeric numbers which you then string together and paste into the Motorola website, to get unlock eligibility confirmation -- at which point they email you an unlock code. This screenshot below is straight from the Motorola website.

https://motorola-global-portal.custhelp.com/app/standalone/bootloader/unlock-your-device-b

That's why it's easy to mis-type something. So, easier to copy and paste the 5 lines of numbers/letters into Notepad, remove the spaces and extraneous words, and then copy/paste THAT back into the Motorola website.

I include this site in my Guide instructions.

did you sussed to unlock boot-loader droid turbo xt1254 with marshmallow 6.0.1 or not
[Verizon Motorola Droid Turbo General] ChazzMatt:
Sorry it didn't work out for you, as the Quark is still a great phone.

I've helped friends with LG G2 and I had a couple as emergency backup until I bought my third XT1225 last spring. Sold all those to defray the cost. So, very familiar with them.

It's your choice, but I would have gone with at least the 2014 LG G3... 1440p (vs 1080p), more RAM (3GB vs 2GB), + microSD card.

Plus the 2013 LG G2 had that quirky bootstrap issue and TWRP problem. The bootstrap issue I think was finally solved, but for TWRP -- you couldn't use "official" TWRP, had to use the modded one that kept temperatures throttled or it would ruin the display. (Don't ask me how I know.) There was a steep learning curve, as I walked in thinking it would be as easy as the LG Nexus 5 (which was based on the LG G2). The LG G3 doesn't have those problems.

All my friends finally sold their LG G2 phones and upgraded to LG G3. I don't have to touch them again! :good:
[Verizon Motorola Droid Turbo General] EjđiSixo:
Actually, bought it just as a backup until the firmware is released or something else achieved, after that I'll think about it. I change phones quite a lot. Sold G3 a month ago, not improvement in any way for me , but we are going too deep now. Never experienced any overheating or similar issues too, and had my last g2 for over a year.

Anyway, I gave motorola a spin again with BF. Run all 5 starting codes , after that some of the 6 starting codes ,around 2 hours.

Nothing.

Hi Guys,

I have received an official marshamallow OTA and i did update my mobile, after an update when try to call someone dialer hangs although call connected but screen show Dialer in hang state, i also observe some time camera app stuck when started.

Any suggestions ? I know its a bit out of the topic but i also interested to unlock the boot loader and revert it to Lollipop as it was working perfectly on last OS.

Regards,

Fahad
[Verizon Motorola Droid Turbo General] ChazzMatt:
You should have UNLOCKED the bootloader before taking the Marshmallow OTA. If you are already on Marshmallow with a locked bootloader, right now you can't unlock it.

In this thread, @Ej?iSixo was hoping there was some way, and started examining the free Motorola unlock codes given to the other Quarks -- XT1225 and XT1250, trying to discover some pattern perhaps to create an unlock code generator for Marshmallow -- but no luck so far.

Sunshine is the only way to unlock the Quark variant Droid Turbo XT1254, and (right now) it only works on Lollipop firmware. Will Sunshine ever work on Marshmallow for XT1254?
[Verizon Motorola Droid Turbo General] imcensored1:
I've definitely subscribed to this.

So to recap the last few pages, to flash the final files needed to revert back to lollipop, the bootloader must be unlocked... seems like a catch 22, considering.

I'd search Ebay for a new phone, but I'm guessing that nearly all of them have taken the OTA update.
[Verizon Motorola Droid Turbo General] ChazzMatt:
You can ask the eBay sellers what version firmware they have. You may have to tell them how to find it (Settings/About, etc.) Private sellers are more amenable to such questions than the "professional" wholesalers.

Also on Swappa.com (XDA partner) you will find savvy owners who may have already unlocked their bootloader.

On Swappa, you can even set email alerts for model you are looking for, when one gets listed for sale.
