[Huawei Mate 9 Questions & Answers] Klanac89:
I use MIUI before Huawei even build devices. It's just the old MIUI, what you get on EMUI.

I saw a lot phones without kernel source but with almost perfect port. Is there more than kernel source?
[Huawei Mate 9 Questions & Answers] cr2:
What do you mean by 'device trees' ?

There is a buggy LineageOS 14.1 image for Honor 8 and they also don't have 4.x kernel sources.

Has somebody tried to boot the HiKey960 4.4 kernel to test the core CPU support ?

It is useless for the phone operation, but will be a good starting point for kernel development.

Closed-source firmware blobs at https://github.com/96boards-hikey/tools-images-hikey960 with very high probability were taken from the Mate 9 codebase.
[Huawei Mate 9 Questions & Answers] Klanac89:
So it is possible but it's really hard to port it?
[Moto G4 Plus Questions & Answers] bauss1:
Hi,

I have G4 Plus XT1642 (retapac). It came shipped with 6.0.1 MPJ24.139-48 preinstalled.

Well i flashed, deleted, maybe bricked and then made it work again with the latest version i wanted to have (139-63) and then rooted it. Everything worked/works, but the wifi mac shows as 02 000000 or something (but no problem with that, wifi mac is fixed with some earlier backup i have, it also gets fixed when i flash to original).

But the worst thing is: Both IMEI show as 0. In the setting menu, and also when dialing the command *#06# (Both IMEIs show 0).

It gave some errors at fastboot because of "downgrade" or so, but i think that's not the issue.

I tried everything, also reflashed to my original version (ATHENE_MPJ24.139-48_cid50_subsidy-DEFAULT_CFC.xml.zip). Everything is fine, wifi mac displays as original also, but IMEIs still are 0.

No matter what I do, both IMEI show as 0, and SIM cards don't work ofcourse (they work, show carrier names etc but don't get accepted, ---> "emergency calls only", because IMEI is 0 i think.

Before you ask: No i don't have a very early TWRP backup from before flashing, deleted it because I had later backup I though everything was working, didn't try any SIM at that time.

How can I fix this? Is there any hope?

What gives me the little hope: At "boot thing" when I type fastboot getvar imei, it shows the correct imei! It doesn't list the second sim though.

Thanks in advance!

Yes. Did exactly that. Flashed the files of XT1642_ATHENE_6.0.1_MPJ24.139-48_cid50_subsidy-DEFAULT_CFC.xml.zip ... with the commands

fastboot oem fb_mode_set
fastboot flash partition gpt.bin

Showed some "errors" at fastboot at some, but I think that was normal. And flashing worked.

But in the end, both IMEI are still 0.

Even reflashed the NON-HLOS.bin. IMEI numbers are still 0.
[Moto G4 Plus Questions & Answers] bauss1:
Additional information:

The original version this retapac XT1642 G4 plus came shipped with was MPJ24.139-48.

I then wanted to update to the latest non-nougat version, which is MPJ24.139-63.

I could not update directly to MPJ24.139-63 from MPJ24.139-48. (Because the internal recovery showed error, that flashed version must origin from MPJ24.139-23.4).

So I overflashed (with fastboot) to MPJ24.139-23.4. So the version then was even lower than it came shipped with lol. Then from MPJ24.139-23.4, used the internal recovery (not TWRP), to apply the OTA update file MPJ24.139-63. Since then the Wifi mac was 020000000 or something, sometimes random wifi disconnects, and imei 0. After going back to original again, wifi mac is fixed, but sim imei numbers still are 0.

Edit: not sure if the imei and wifi errors accured since MPJ24.139-23.4, or after the OTA update file, or sometime inbetween because i deleted something in TWRP.

[Moto G4 Plus Questions & Answers] bauss1:
I don't want nougat. Can I go back to MPJ24.139-63 from nougat? But maybe worth a try if nobody knows any other possibility
[Moto G4 Plus Questions & Answers] BlackBeats:
Try removing oem fb set command

If it doesn't work then flash nougat then use 6.0.1 custom ROM

Edit fb_mode_set
[Moto G4 Plus Questions & Answers] bauss1:
Flashed everything again, without the fastboot oem fb_mode_set (MPJ24.139-48). Both IMEIs are still 0, everything else is fine though, original wifi mac.

---

Then took original over the air update it offered me (NPJ25.93-14). Installed without problems.

But, guess what.... it made things worse.

Now i am on NPJ25.93-14, the IMEIs still are 0, and the wifi mac address is at 02:00:00:00:00:00 again.

:(

What I noticed is, in settings it shows the IMEI SV (Slot1) and IMEI SV (Slot2). They both changed to 08. I think they were 03 or so before.

Edit: In the boot recovery thing it says the usual stuff:

Battery OK (Charging)

flashing_unlocked

Software status: Official

...

So... updating to Nougat did not help, made things worse (wifi mac weird again, IMEI still 0).

Any other ideas?

Well, originally I would love that this post was inside the section of Samsung Galaxy Grand Prime SM-530M, but because I'm just starting in the forum I can not do it.

Anyway, greetings from Uruguay inhabitants of XDA forum, I come to learn how and with what tools can i make a copy of the SM-530M Rom model that has the distinction of being groped by Movistar, tons of exaggeratedly large screenshots and other company-garbage, which ends up wiping out the little memory as they are protected by the system.

The model SM-530M is quite elusive apparently, since I have found very few Roms, there are Roms from other companies like being the state-owned Antel and another called Claro but none of Movistar.

So I'll be reading all the information I can find to, in the first instance, generate a copy of the Rom so I can share it with other users.

At the moment I have only been able to access the system menu to know some data.

[Samsung Galaxy S8 Questions and Answers] SlackingVeteran:
I have no Idea how to start but I will throw in whatever I have so far.

I ordered sim unlock from samsungsimunlock.com for $26 ($13 original price and $13 Pending Amount for Hard Locked phone). This morning I was provided the Unlock Code and an app called Network Unlock which looked like T-Mobile's device unlock app but was non functional. The instructions were clear, install the app and enter the unlock code when prompted, but only ended up with no Sim Unlock.

I checked Service Menu to find an option to enter Unlock Code but it was missing Phone Control menu option since T-Mobile restricted unlocks to their app.

Now I am wondering if I would be able to flash Verizon or ATT firmware and be able to enter the Unlock Code. I know people are still trying to figure out ways to install the firmware through Odin and no one has been successful so far. But I was just wondering if I would be able to change firmware to different carrier which has the option to enter unlock code.

Any replies or help would be really appreciated. And I can use my T-Mobile phone as test device if anyone has ideas.
[Samsung Galaxy S8 Questions and Answers] osmosizzz:
You have to go through Tmobile's app if you have it locked to Tmobile's sim. Flashing another firmware may work but not guaranteed

Did you reach out to samsungsimunlock.com or did you request a refund?

[Samsung Galaxy S8 Questions and Answers] beserker15:
Just curious but when you said the code works when you flashed the rom for testing, did you try and then flash another carrier's rom (like AT&T, Sprint, or Verizon) rather than re-install the T-mobile software? Was it able to pick up a signal after it accepted the code while you were not on the T-mobile firmware?

Does that means if I flash another carrier's firmware phone will work? Or what do you mean by rom for testing?

SamsungSimUnlock.com are a SCAM!!!

Dear XDA people looking to unlock your phones,

The post below, is just a copy of this post (ht tps://forum.xda-developers. com/showpost.php?p=73084963&postcount=117), but for convenience I've copied it here:

Do not, again, DO NOT use samsungsimunlock.com. They scam people into sending them codes. I was scammed out of $26. Their website states they refund the money if it doesn't work, they don't.

Here is what happens (I've broken it down in a number of steps):

1. You go to their website, and order an unlock code. It states that it is $13. Great. You then wait.

2. You receive this e-mail:

3. You click the link, pay, then wait a few hours, and then you receive this e-mail:

4. You download the app, enter the code, and it says that your phone is permanently unlocked. You are happy, restart the phone, enter new sim, and find out that the phone is not unlocked at all.

You find out that the app is just a dummy app, and it doesn't matter what code you enter, it always says that it's permanently unlocked. It never is.

5. You reply to them, tell them that the code is not working, and they stall with various e-mails.

Stalling e-mail one:

Stalling e-mail two:

Stalling e-mail three:

Stalling e-mail four:

Stalling e-mail five:

Stalling e-mail six:

Stalling e-mail seven (after which I requested a refund for a second time):

Stalling e-mail eight (still no refund):

All this time, I've complied with their requests for screenshots and stuff. So, after eight e-mails, it's easy to conclude that this is just a tactic.

I waited more than two weeks for them to comply with the refund. They haven't.

6. You go on XDA forums to warn other users not to use them, because this is the place where I found that site, which was probably plugged by the scammers themselves.

7. Find another reputable Unlock code provider.

Ultimately I did find a website, and they sent me a code which worked flawlessly. I'm not stating which one it is, so that this post doesn't seem like it's from someone trying to promote a website.

So, there you have it folks. I have an unlocked phone, but my back account is $26 lighter.

If you have $26 that is just itching to leave your bank account, donate it, or buy some random person some flowers. Do not use samsungsimunlock.com

I will update this post if I hear back from SamsungSimUnlock.com
[Samsung Galaxy S8 Questions and Answers] tf22:
I got scammed too... :(

Any chance you can PM me the URL of the site that worked for you?

Just a heads up to anyone who still has the original UDP and wants to keep wifi tethering with FoxFi. YOU CANT.

The 7.0 update blocks wifi tether by foxfi and bluetooth tether. I was able to get USB tether to work using PDAnet but your pretty much stuck to using a pc or mac.

also... there was something i read about ejecting the sim as you try to enable the stock wifi hotspot, as a trick that worked. unfortunately that seems to have been blocked by verizon - the phone forces you to reboot a before you get any connectivity back after ejecting a sim card.

https://xdaforums.com/verizon-galaxy-s6/general/downgrade-6-0-1-to-5-1-1-t3489816

Factory Data Reset just wipes your apps, media, settings, accounts and etc. It is what you would you use if you were to resell or return your phone for some reason. :rolleyes:

It doesn't touch the firmware.

You will use the Factory Data Reset from Maintenance mode in the process of downgrading after you flash the appropriate firmware. But before you go downgrading don't forget to turn off re-activation lock. And all of this is if your phone's firmware is still down-gradable. :silly:

[Google Pixel XL Guides, News, & Discussion] Jammol:
You're supposed to go to the source you purchased the device from first. :rolleyes:
[Google Pixel XL Guides, News, & Discussion] fiffan86:
No you do not, like I mentioned my dad directly contacted Samsung and they took care of him. I know plenty of people who contact the manufacturer and got help. When I had a problem with my Moto n6 from Verizon, I contacted Motorola and they took care of me as well. If I had a problem with a washing machine, I don't contact the store I bought it from, I contact the manufacturer.
[Google Pixel XL Guides, News, & Discussion] Jammol:
You're missing the point of my post. You can go to the place of purchase first to see if they will swap out the device without dealing with a headache. If the device is past their policy, then you go to the manufacturer. Every product in the USA is typically done that way with the exception of extremely large items such as a vehicle whether it's land or sea.

I did not say your dad was wrong, but he could have went to ATT first. I have went to Google for device replacements that I did not purchase from them, but not until after I check with the place I purchased the device to see if they would comply switch it out.

Furthermore​, go to the 6P forum, Google has been replacing devices for people that didn't purchase it from them directly. Even devices that are a year out of manufacturer warranty.
