[Mate 8 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Bearded_1:
Hi all,

Having been in contact with Huawei facebook support, they have checked my imei and tell me my Mate 8 is for the Southeast Asia market - no surprise there as I bought it from eBay. So with a Mate 8 from Singapore or thereabout, how do I go about getting a uk rom on it? preferably emui 5 based? If it were a Samsung i'd just flash the normal way through odin, but I don't know with the Mate if region specifics are going to be an issue, or if i might wipe my imei or something horrific.. Is there a tut on updating an NXT-L29 'specseas' unit? I have looked!!

Sites like this http://www.carbontesla.com/2016/08/download-huawei-mate-8-b320-marshmallow-firmware-europe/ say things like 'This update should only be installed on C432 based European Mate 8 handsets'.

I'm currently on NXT-L29C636B193

Any assistance appreciated

[Mate 8 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Bearded_1:
Huawei's facebook team have come back to me saying 'The Mate 8 Build Number should be Mate 8 NXT-L29C432B192 or NXT-L09C432B192 (depends on the exact model number).' This has lead me to http://www.carbontesla.com/2016/10/download-huawei-mate-8-b192-marshmallow-update-europe/#more-9728 where I have downloaded the L29 version and copied the Update.app to my ext card as suggested. Could someone tell me if updating my phone this way is likely to cause me issues? i'm just copying off the entirety of my sd card expecting a full wipe at some point..

Hi,

I just got a new SW update (41.2.a.7.8) .. Does anyone know what is new there? or just again just a security patch?

Thanks,
[Sony Xperia XZ Questions & Answers] Nidhal AKA the king:
your XZ is Dual sim, and this build is for F8332 (Dual sim) same May security patch like in the XZ F8331 (single sim)
[Sony Xperia XZ Questions & Answers] eelpout:
Can't install on my F8332, fails the verify step every time. :(
[Sony Xperia XZ Questions & Answers] a_k_gano:
what does it say when it fails?
[Sony Xperia XZ Questions & Answers] eelpout:
immediately upon reboot it says, "Verifying system update" gets about 50% of the way with the progress bar, then restarts and I get the failed update message.

Apparently Sony has had this issue in the past and laid blame at the feet of Google's update servers.

Maybe it has something to do with the firmware on my phone. Bought it off eBay last year and it has a Myanmar ROM. Never had an update fail before though. It's not rooted or bootloader unlocked or anything.

EDIT: Gave up on the OTA, never got it to work and instead updated mine by using Androxyde's Flashtool.

Hi,

how could I change the Icons in the statusbar (wifi, battery, ...) from the HTC ones to the ones from the Pixel?
[HTC U11  Questions & Answers] Cryosx:
ViperU comes with them on the full rom (not the magisk one)
[HTC U11  Questions & Answers] fix-this!:
I don't see them in the rom. the hub is empty too.
[HTC U11  Questions & Answers] Cryosx:
Just making sure, but is there a difference between pixel icons and stock Android icons?

If there isn't, ViperU should have them because I distinctly remember the icons being different from HTC's. Especially the VPN icon.
[HTC U11  Questions & Answers] Digitalkarma:
decompile the system ui apk and replace the stock stat_sys images with the pixel ones
[HTC U11  Questions & Answers] fix-this!:
badboys rom has aosp based statusbar icons.
[HTC U11  Questions & Answers] OMJ:
the google statusbar icons are not imgs u can swap, the icons are done w/ xml

yep, the stock icons are hideous!
[HTC U11  Questions & Answers] Digitalkarma:
wow how times have changed since the m7. i thought U11 system ui would be the same.

is the xml edit a matter of changing the img reference to another folder that do have the google status images already embedded somewhere? or is it a smali edit?

with the m7 i could either do xml reference edit or overwrite image files.
[HTC U11  Questions & Answers] jsaxon2:
Are you rooted? I have a Layer I made that works on the HTC 10 to give AOSP style signal icons. If you want to try it let me know. Basically copy it into /system/vendor/overlay and set permissions.

[HTC U11  Questions & Answers] Digitalkarma:
i don't have an U11 yet. still on the fence, but once sprint officially brings the Solar Red or Amazing Silver to their network and maybe drop the retail price down by $50-100 then i'm on the U11. i know it aint going to be $696 for long hoping by Fall/Winter they worked all the production kinks out, drop the price a little and maybe include a few extra goodies in there to entice the late adopters once sales cools off
[HTC U11  Questions & Answers] OMJ:
the stock htc icons on the unlocked version are images that can be swapped...I'm sure there are several ways to accomplish the same goal, but my method adds the google xmls back to systemui (ie..google_stat_sys_signal_0.xml) then I change the resource value in HtcIcons.smali to point to those xmls, here's an example of one of the xmls...I'm not sure how the Pixel sets those icons, xml or imgs

In case anyone comes across this thread during their searching, I got FRP off of one of these phones.

-Download MS21010f_02_1217.kdz from https://lg-firmwares.com/lg-ms210-firmwares/

-This firmware is the very first firmware for the phone. It's Android 7.0 with the December 1, 2016 security patch, making the bypass process MUCH easier.

-Download and install Uppercut, LGUP, and the USB drivers from https://xdaforums.com/lg-g5/development/uppercut-lgup-loader-g5-variants-t3511295

-Put the phone in download mode

-Connect the phone to the PC

-Open Uppercut

-Load the KDZ in LGUP when it opens

-Next to Process, select "Upgrade"

-Click Start

-After the phone finishes flashing, factory reset the device with the hardware keys

Now you can go on YouTube and use any of the guides for an LG device.

Although I don't understand Spanish, I followed this guide, got by FRP, and removed it: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=k2T4cA4BnYU

The ms210 and a K10 428 I've unlocked by combining methods I found while researching setup bypass. the most helpful tool (website) I've uncovered is frp.f0il.c o m

when you've done one bypass the first 25 steps are pretty much the same so i wont go into them, and I assume you have WiFi. if and when you get into the browser search for this website frp.f0il.c o m and go to it

there's 3 links and you'll want to click and hold the first link and open with G mail .... manage accounts.... settings... notifications... in phone settings... (the second link is a d-load of shortcut master, third is for a useless version of goog account man. 6.0 i think)

after doing your business and pressing the back key 100 times to get to the initial WELCOME screen you will want to go sit on the toilet, best advice i can give as patience is key. crash the phone (crashing the home app) keep trying and trying going back and forth and back .... between the first screen the wifi screen and the Goolge loading screen and back again. ive had luck on lower end devices by installing dumb amounts of RAM eating apps that crash the home screen first try. others such as the Aristo ive cramped my hand and had hours of slapping the screen lagging to no avail only to reset the fone and try a different method. on a j3-prime i wasnt able to bypass setup but used sidebar's buttons to open the home screen and use everything besides the play store... Its not a hack its an art. and personally its not a theft deterrent its a privacy guaranty. There are reasons bypasses are possible at all. Good night, and good luck.

whoa. I totally just remembered a better work around. Use any other LG device with the app LG Backup.

(might only be 7.0 +)

Using LG Backup just copy the settings from an opened device to your locked one.

follow countless other frp bypasses found on elgoog to get to the system settings and select LG backup/restore

it worked with latest security patch too so no downgrade necessary

(tbh i used my aristo to unlock a k10 but in theory it will work other way around)

Hi,

Before I boot this for the first time and let the extended ROM install, does anyone know if the extended ROM on the Stellar contains any nasty surprises? (Like the SoftBank Hermes phones).

Cavey
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] rohanmaini:
1. The Kaiser Does not have an extended memory.

2. And the apps that shall get instaleed depends entireely on what Rom your device has been shipped with.

HTC has different Roms for diff regions... then again various branded units have diff Roms from their carriers. I am sure even O2 shall have diff Roms accross Europe...

Any way since you are switching it on for the first time, you could proably hard reset before syncing up/ Installing your apps.
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] Cavey.co.uk:
The reason I ask is that the extended ROM contains applications which are automatically installed over the base after a hard reset (it's an extension over the standard WM6 ROM rather than being Extended Memory). SoftBank Hermes phones contain an application in their Extended ROM which locks the SIM permanently (so you cannot SIM unlock these phones if you have ever run the ExtROM, see here).

Anyway, this is just the standard, delivered brand new UK O2 XDA Stellar with the generic ROM, so I wanted to know if there were any nasties in the Extended ROM. I doubt there are, but would be nice to know....
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] rohanmaini:
There is no such thing as an extended Rom on the Kaiser. Yes there are certain apps which run after install, but these are in the Windows folder itself.

I guess the best way would be to soft reset before the customisation takes place, go into the windows folder and check out the autexecute file and see what programs install...
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] Cavey.co.uk:
Cheers for the advice. All seems pretty mundane stuff and doesn't appear to have pooched my machine.

[Xperia Z5 Compact Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kony2012:
Yes
[Xperia Z5 Compact Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mhaha:
Then there's a high chance that something root-dependent you installed is causing it.

Speaking from personal experience, there was a period of time when I had similar problems. My phone was rooted, had Xposed and multiple modules. It got so bad I decided to do something about it.

I suspected one of the Xposed modules was the cause, so I disabled all modules and used the phone as usual for a few days to see if it was still crashing. It stopped, confirming my suspicions.

After a bit of work, I finally narrowed it down to MinMinGuard as the culprit. Disabling only this module and enabling all other modules, my phone finally stopped crashing and rebooting whenever it was doing something link related. So I've uninstalled it, and phone has been stable ever since.

It may not be the same case for you, but hope this bit of info will help you identify the cause of your problem.
