[Xiaomi Mi 5s Questions & Answers] Zappo:
I had the same problem with my Mi 5s.

This is what I eventually did to solve it (from memory - Google a bit for detailed instructions):

Download the Chinese version of Mi PC Suite (It has more options than the english version)

You can then recover from bootloop, by using it's recovery;

- Start MiPCSuite

- Boot phone to recovery (volume up + power)

- Select "Connect with MiAssistant" (bottom option)

- Phone should be detected, and a popup will show on PC with recovery options.

I believe it could download the latest version for you, or you can select a downloaded .zip file to flash.

It will have to be the same type that was previously installed (during the failed flash). So you can not go from Dev to Stable, or from CN to Global.

Go here for (Mi 5s) roms: http://en.miui.com/download-314.html#456

On the PC it immediately said flash failed, but the phone re-flashed the ROM anyway.

Hope this helps some...

P.S. Used my old phone with Google Translate App to read Chinese (Instant translation with the camera)

P.P.S. Other options won't work, because Xiaomi locked out the EDL in Chinese Developer versions. Even with the Deep Flash cable.

I'm now running Chinese Dev. version, and can not enter EDL anymore. I'll have to wait for bootloader unlock before I can flash again...

P.P.P.S. It seems I was wrong about not being able to switch: just flashed Global ROM 8.0.3.0 (From Chinese Dev. ROM 7.1.20) using the same method.

Again on the PC it said flashing failed (immediately) and stays at 0%, but the phone shows it's updating...

After flashing had to clear/reset data (again from MiPCSuite - Middle option in popup - Red button in 2nd popup), otherwise all apps keep crashing.

Because I'm back to Global ROM now, I can also use my Deep Flash cable again.
[Xiaomi Mi 5s Questions & Answers] DR2010:
Dear Zappo, many thanks for your reply! I still fighting with the problem... already tried to disconnect the battery, not going to EDL as well.

I think only JTAG-flasher will help in my case (cannot get it, because I'm out of "civilisation" for a long time), but you have given to me the last hope))

Could you please make a screenshot where you did see the option "Connect with MiAssistant". Which version of chinese MiPCSuite did you use?

I used version 2.3.0.9091, it hangs on approximately 5% (on the phone) and does not proceed... was waiting for 30 minutes, no progress... I used it in a way to download the latest ROM and then install it.
[Xiaomi Mi 5s Questions & Answers] DR2010:
My dear friend Zappo, I still do not believe, but I had success recovering this brick with chinese MiPCSuite v2.3.0.9091. It just downloaded the latest ROM for the device from internet and was flashing it during 1 hour 10 minutes!!! Before I had no success because I was waiting only half an hour, not more!)) But exactly after half an hour it continues and finalizes successfully!!! Another reason of my success I think could be (but less probable) that I have opened a device some days ago and disconnected the battery in order to try to get in EDL mode without the power (but was also not successful). Also today before I started MiPCSuite I have switched on the device from completely OFF state with Volume+ and Power button... So, I really do not know how the success come, but now I'm really happy!!! Many, many, many thanks for your help and for second breath ;))))
[Xiaomi Mi 5s Questions & Answers] Zappo:
Hi DR2010,

That's awesome! :good:

I'm glad my post helped you out!

Keep in mind that EDL does not work on the Developer ROM.

That's one of the reasons I switched to the Global ROM.

Hey, Im trying to go from chinese to global now on latest chinese firmware 8.2.2 and can flash only chinese highest dev 7.3.6 any idea how can I make it work?
[Xiaomi Mi 5s Questions & Answers] Zappo:
Did you unlock bootloader?

If you're on 8.2.2, I don't see why you wouldn't be able to just flash TWRP recovery, and install any ROM you like...
[Xiaomi Mi 5s Questions & Answers] deadwolf666:
Bootloader is locked, I wondered if the phone can be flashed using EDL ..
[Xiaomi Mi 5s Questions & Answers] Zappo:
Do you have a Deep Flash cable?

I believe it should work with 8.2.2

As far as I know, EDL is only disabled in dev ROM.

But I would also unlock the bootloader if I were you.

Installing a custom recovery (TWRP) makes things much easier and safer.
[Xiaomi Mi 5s Questions & Answers] deadwolf666:
EDL cables not working :(

Hi everyone!

i try some days ago to dual boot my phone, nothing work.

When i use dual boot Patcher i see:

[MultiBoot] This device is 'hct6580_weg_c_m'

[MultiBoot] Failed to flash zip file.

Anyway, on the official web site, i don't see Oukitel C3. May be it's not compatible.

Any rom should fine for me CM, Windows phone, a second Oukitel ROM...

Do you have any suggestions?

Thank you!
[XDA Assist] xanthrax:
Hi !

As far as I can see on that dual boot patcher mode thread, you need a custom kernel for dual boot support and a custom recovery

Requirements

1. A Custom Recovery (TWRP or PhilZ Touch)

2. A ROM

3. The Dualboot Patcher - From here (Download the APK in Downloads Section)

It patches...

Custom kernels for dual boot support

ROMs so that they can be installed as secondary

Google Apps packages for AOSP-based ROMs

SuperSU so that it can be used in the secondary ROM

Ask on there about the chances you may have to make it work.

Good luck !
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 5] invisiblewave:
Every now & then the wifi calling option disappears from my Settings, and I can't figure out what's causing it to go. I'm running a rooted version of the last stock VS3 T-Mobile rom, with Xposed. I noticed this morning that the icon had gone, so I checked the More Networks menu, and sure enough, it had gone again. I just reflashed GPK3, installed TWRP, SU & Xposed and Wifi calling is back, so there must be something else I'm doing that's disabling it, I just can't figure out what!
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 5] rlichtefeld:
AFAIK, only Touchwiz stock Roms and kernels support WiFi calling on T-Mobile.

Is VS3 an international or custom Rom? If so, that is the problem.

Greetings and welcome to assit. The easiest way to recover your device is by using kies/smartswitch emergency firmware recovery but this will remove root. You could also flash custom recovery with odin and then flash a custom prerooted rom.

Hello,

I bought an LG G3 VS985 Verizon from ebay, brand new in box. the phone looks great but i only had one thing on my mind... rooting. i tried all of the methods i could possibly find, but every time i try to do anything in download mode, it just fails. flat-out fails. i can easily get IN-to download mode but it wont flash anything. i think i have a clue as to why though but i don't know what it means. I've looked at images of other lg g3 download mode and mine is the only one that has a red "Modified" label on the bottom. Am i wrong in thinking that the download mode is locked somehow? i can't live without rooting so any help would be appreciated :)

since im new to the forums XDA wont let me insert outside links so i cant show you guys a picture of the phone or the ebay listing (if thats applicable) sorry.

Thanks in advance!

Thanks for the quick reply! but i have another problem. when i follow that tutorial you sent me, i connect to

Is the recovery broken/missing?

i wanna do the following.... connect to the internet on the laptop using the desktop's connection through the wireless connection between the hermes and the laptop... assuming that the hermes is conected to the desktop through actisync....

i hope i was clear enough... other solution i do not need... the thing is that i nees wireless connection.... the wired one betweeen desktop and laptop it's simple but it's not what i want....

thanks....

P.S. don't shoot me for asking this...

Just to get things straight.

You want your Hermes to act as a wireless access point from the PC. So that your laptop can use the interent through your main PC.

search for Schaps Advanced Config 1.1 theres an option in the program to make your Hermes and access point.

Anyone notice that apps close in the background when you switch between them even if it's for a second? Currently on the b08 version. If it has happened to anyone can you tell me how you fixed it please if at all?
[ZTE Axon 7 Questions & Answers] Galaxo60:
You have to go:

Settings>Energy Management>Energy Management for Applications>App protection list.

From there, you go to "Allow screen-lock cleaning" and you disabled all the applications you want to keep on background.

After that, you have to reboot and it will work like a charm.

Strange, did you reboot?, another thing you can try is to delete de cache, just restart the phone and leave the Vol+ press and you can have the option "Wipe cache", and then reboot.

That's what I did exactly, even when other people is reporting strange bugs that are gone after factory reset, because it seems that some configurations get stuck between updates.

On my Nexus 6p 7.1.1 if I try to Google Photos see all my photos.

But if I search on my device in the DCIM folder I only see very few photos and several empty folders. Where are photos stored? In which path and folder?

I thought it might be in Google Drive. But why I see them on Google Photos also without internet connection (wifi or 4g)?

All of the many empty folders (IMG_2016 .....) I can delete them without any problems? or their cancellation makes me lose the pictures (stored somewhere)?

Thanks.
[Nexus 6P Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bigblueshock:
Two things...

1) You can check picture location by going into Google Photos, click a picture, click the " i " (info) button on bottom. It will give you exact storage location. If there's no location and it just has the IMG, then it's on Google Photos website.

2) Google Drive may not show your photos unless you specifically tell it to. You must go to http://photos.google.com instead. Your drive and photos are most likely seperated

[Nexus 5X General] Deleted member 4783640:
No, it isn't bad. But usually when someone makes a tool it has a high level of flexibility and the program is usually very dynamic. Yours is like 100% static. It's like written in stone what the program is going to execute so that makes this program not user-friendly at all. To be honest with you, it's a nice try. I mean it proves you know and know how to use various batch functionalities. But it's nothing to write home about. I'd suggest diving into something like Java or Python and let the user decide more options so eventually you have a dynamic, but very robust tool for people to use.

thanks for your contribution, everybody started somewhere and there are tons of folks who want a quick no frills method of rooting phones of all makes, Ive done rooting for $ for folks who dont want to learn how for whatever reason and woulduse a tool like this to just get the job done quick & easy.

keep plugging away at it add as much functionality as you want, people just like to troll and down anybody on the 'net but would never have the balls to do it IRL.

Ive been around this forum since before android and have seen it grow, I wish people would be more appreciative and troll less, maybe this tool isnt for you, but it may be just what somebody else is looking for....

doing a root tutorial that matches your build will prevent most if not all of the hiccups that can come from incompatibilities in roms that are more complex than a noobie rooter needs to know.

[Nook HD, HD+ Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mautas:
Hi, my Nook HD+ (16 GB) collapsed a year ago getting in a reboot to CyanogenMod loop... It had the latest stable CM11 installed and EMMC CMW-based recovery v6.0.4.6.

When turning it on it did this

1) Showed NOOK bootscreen

2) Showed the Cyanoboot screen.

3) Showed the animated CyanogenMod logo and after a moment went back to 1)

I tried reflashing CM11 again but it kind of failed somewhere in the progress of the operation... I can't remember the details right now but the thing is the device was in this situation. I tried everything from wiping everything you could wipe and I tried also upgrading CM11 to a nightly version... with the very same results.

Today I decided to give it a try and found a very nice post by leapinlar (https://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2062613) so I decided to try to take it back to stock firmware. But I can't do it. This is what happens.

I prepared bootable SD card with CMW 6.0.2.8 for HD+ (Stock) and this boots OK.

Flashed NoodHDPlus-emmc-stock-recovery-rev0-(05.16.13).zip, finishes OK without any errors.

Flashed NookHDplus-factory-2.1.0-plain-stock.zip - It shows some progress until some error regarding touching some emoji.so file shows up and aborts.

Detail on this last thing:

Installing update...

Random offset: 0x3e4

Failed to retouch '/system/lib/libemoji.so'.

E:Error in /sdcard/NookHDplus-factory-2.1.0-plain-stock.zip

(Status 7)

Installation aborted.

After this I reboot and CyanogenBoot still shows up... And that's it.... no more progress... I have to turn it off.

The weird thing is that booting to emmc recovery (power + n key) brings up CMW 6.0.4.6... I tried flashing CMW 6.0.3.6 for emmc booting from the SD card and the process finishes without errors but then, when booting to recovery with (power + n key) CMW 6.0.4.6 shows up again...

So this is how I'm stuck on doing something to recover my Nook HD+. I would appreciate some help. Thank you.
