[Honor 8 Lite Questions & Answers] raboucher:
I've been trying to boot my Honor 5A to TWRP so that I can install LineageOS. A variety of threads say that this or that version of TWRP should work, but none seem to. The phone keeps popping back into EMUI.

-- I've unlocked the bootloader.

-- ADB and Fastboot seem to be working find -- I can flash TWRP to recovery and get the "OK Finished"

-- I've tried different versions including, among others, TWRP for Honor 6 Mogolia, Honor 4x Cherry, and P8 Lite. They reboot to the screen that says "Your device is booting now" then after 15 secs or so it boots back to EMUI.

-- Last attempt was the TWRP3.0.2.img for P8 Lite. I copied the img file to recovery.img and then to the phone.

-- When I issued the command to boot to recovery I got:

$ fastboot boot recovery.img

downloading 'boot.img'...

OKAY [ 0.856s]

booting...

FAILED (remote: Command not allowed)

finished. total time: 0.856s

Oh, the "Official TWRP App" doesn't work either. It will say the image is downloaded, but won't "Reboot to Recovery"

Any suggestions?

[GUIDE] Success! Wiped Emui and loaded LineageOS on Honor 5A

Well, I finally made it through the process with the help of bits and pieces of other threads. To summarize, the problem was that there is no "Enable OEM unlock" in the settings on this phone. I had to enable USB Debugging and turn off all other developer options, then remove my google account and finally reboot into recovery, whereupon I saw the TWRP page.

For those who want it, the whole process was this:

-- Used DC-Unlocker to get my unlock bootloader code. The Huawei site just gave me the "haven't logged in for 14 days" error again and again for a month, and their help lines just tell you not to unlock your phone.

-- From Linux, used adb and fastboot to unlock the bootloader.

-- Kept flashing TWRP for various devices onto the phone, but whatever I did, Emui kept reloading.

-- Removed Google account from phone and screen lock.

-- Used fastboot to load TWRP 3.0.2 Recovery for P8 Lite Marshmallow (renamed as recovery.img) onto the phone. See https://xdaforums.com/android/general/rooting-huawei-y6-ii-cam-l21-t3501162

-- Booted into recovery by pushing volume up and power at same time.

-- Jumped for joy when TWRP came up.

-- Used TWRP to install LineageOS 14.1 for P8Lite (lineage-14.1-20170418-unofficial-hi6210sft.zip found at https://www.gizrom.com/lineage-os-14-1-p8-lite-honor-4c-honor-4x-model[/URL]) which I had downloaded to SDCard on the phone.

-- Booted to the dreaded "Password required screen" so I had to go back and wipe the data directory using TWRP (see https://community.zteusa.com/thread/14780)

-- Installed LineageOS for hi6210sft via TWRP

-- Immediately (before any reboot) installed OpenGapps full version for arm64 from SDCard: open_gapps-arm64-7.1-full-20170614.zip from http://opengapps.org/

-- Restarted the phone and .... OMG this time it all worked.

Good luck.

[Nexus 6P Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] H4V0K864:
Ok lets see, I'll try to keep this as brief as possible.

I have a Nexus 6p with Cricket Wireless.

I was running PureNexus 7.1.2 which kept crashing, so I decided to revert back to 7.1.1. After successfully flashing factory image Angler N4F26T, I've noticed my device is now showing...

Build number
NOF27C (Pixel XL Rogers Only??????????)

Vendor version
NUF26N

PureNexus version
7.1.1-20170317-OFFICIAL

Kernel Version
3.10.73-ElementalX-N6P-4.06

So what the heck, guys? I used the flash-all script found within the factory image zip, I'm not getting a warning about vendor mismatch or anything like that. My 6p thinks its a Pixel XL and the Rogers Only bit concerns me. I know nothing about Rogers but I know my carrier is GSM, will this have any effect on me? Any help is greatly appreciated.

Is it ok to pay bills, check bank account etc on a device that's unlocked and rooted? Or once you do that to the device you loose all security?

Thanks
[Google Pixel XL Questions & Answers] bobby janow:
I wouldn't do it, at least not outside my home wifi. Your bank probably has certain protections but your data is exposed if you lose the device or it gets stolen. That being said, I have done it with no untoward effects, but that was before hacking became so prevalent. Be curious to see what others have to say.
[Google Pixel XL Questions & Answers] jblack41510:
So it's only really a threat if I loose my device?

Is there any security issue using while in possession of the device?
[Google Pixel XL Questions & Answers] TonikJDK:
Root is not an additional threat if you lose your phone. If you lose your phone to a pro you are toast, root or not. If they are not a pro root makes zero difference. Assuming you have a pin password on the phone. If you don't you are of course toast.

The danger of root is you. If you muck it up by installing unknown software, turning off encryption, stuff like that...that is where you will get in trouble.
[Google Pixel XL Questions & Answers] jblack41510:
Thanks for the reply

I know what can happen if I loose the phone. My main concern is the phones security while in my possession.

So as long as I don't install unknown software and apps while unlocked and rooted, then my information should be just as safe as if I wasn't unlocked and rooted?

I do have a few apps I have Installed from unknown sources that I use. Mostly the popular ones... Adaway and viper4andriod.

Do any of these security apps like cm, Norton, bitdefender etc. really work?
[Google Pixel XL Questions & Answers] pcriz:
I've always been rooted and I use banking and pay apps on occasion, I mean all this is anecdotal so take it with a grain of salt because we can't predict the future of what exploits bring and no one knows your habits when it comes to mobile devices.

I dont put a lot of stake in to those apps you mentioned, they make money off of fear.

Keep your device up to date, don't download programs you are uncertain of, make sure you have a lock screen and pattern. At this point its a difference of 6 or 7 pad locks on the front door.
[Google Pixel XL Questions & Answers] TonikJDK:
V

I dont consider those apps to be unknown. They come from here, have been around forever and are very popular. Adaway was on the store until Google changed the rules.

Based on what you are doing you are fine..

And I agree with thw poster above, the commercial security programs are next to useless.

And keep your phone up to date. A phone not up to date on security patches scares me far more than a rooted phone.

Do your thing you are fine.
[Google Pixel XL Questions & Answers] bobby janow:
How are you toast with a locked bootloader, pin startup? Pro or not. Unlocked bl, flash without data wipe -w, and data is exposed. Most don't use a startup pin. I'm not questioning your knowledge just looking for the explanation.
[Google Pixel XL Questions & Answers] pcriz:
What do you mean most don't use a start up pin? You set a pin/pattern period and the device is encrypted.

That means even if I flash factory without the -w my device won't let me in without me using my pin or pattern. Maybe I am missing some thing? Of course I flash this thing at least once every 60 days and I have literally had the same pin since my first boot up when it encrypted the file system.

Even of you reset the device unless you have the email for the original owner you can't get in.
[Google Pixel XL Questions & Answers] TonikJDK:
I should have been more clear when I said 'pro'. I mean a real pro. Hackers got into a locked iPhone in the San Bernardo shooter case. Those same hackers took a run at Android and found a way to hijack an MDM system and remotely reset the pin. None of us need to worry about those kinds of attacks if we lose our phone, but the bottom line is that if you lose physical control of any device, phone, computer, tablet, your data is toast if the right person takes a run at it.
[Google Pixel XL Questions & Answers] bobby janow:
I'm not 100% on this so bear with me. I was under the assumption that with an unlocked bootloader FRP (factory reset protection) was non functional. By startup pin I meant there is an option when setting a pin to either have it ask for the pin before anything at all happens and one to get into the device once it boots up. Most people use the latter but not the former because it's a pain. Personally, I set both with a locked bootloader so I'm pretty much in the clear. But with an unlocked bootloader and no startup pin (vs login pin) it's my understanding that you are wide open to data theft if you device is stolen.

---------- Post added at 07:16 AM ---------- Previous post was at 07:11 AM ----------

That I agree with. Although banking apps will ask for verification from an unknown IP address or device. The hackers that got into a locked iPhone were paid millions by us. (the government) I doubt that if your bootloader is locked and the device is lost those same hackers will be paid that kind of money for your pics of the wife and kids. ;) But once again, I was under the assumption that unlocked the task is much, much easier.
[Google Pixel XL Questions & Answers] pcriz:
So when I set up my device out the box there was no options to change frp, it asks if you want to set up a finger print and when you click yes it prompts for either a pin or pattern first.

There is no option for start up pin. Once you have a pin or pattern the device is encrypted. As per Google's policy once that happens, unless I remove the pin every power up requires a pin, if you don't use your device for say like 8 hours it requires a pin, otherwise it's a finger print.

No where can I set the pin not to activate upon boot. You either have a pin/pattern or you don't have one.

You can flash this thing all day but without my pattern you aren't getting in and I have been unlocked and rooted since November.
[Google Pixel XL Questions & Answers] TonikJDK:
FRP is currently unbeatable unlocked or not. Other than the aforementioned 'pros' I guess.

There is no boot pin on Android, but there is a 'Sim Lock' that you can turn on. It is in the security settings and keeps your phone from connecting to the internet or doing much of anything until you enter it after a reboot. Alarms and so on will not work either. Even with a fingerprint set, when you reboot you still have to enter the pin.
[Google Pixel XL Questions & Answers] bobby janow:
Ok, I have 2 devices, a 5x and a Pixel and I use them both. On the 5x (Android O, locked bootloader) when I am asked to enter a PIN then the question is, " You can further protect this device by requiring your PIN before it starts up. ... Require PIN to start your device?" That is different than after you startup. I don't think on (7.1.2) the Pixel that question is asked.

Nonetheless, if you unlock the bootloader and have root (obviously I can't test this) can you flash a factory image with the -w and get in without your pin? What if you flash an image without the -w switch? Without FRP protection, as with an unlocked bootloader, don't you feel your device is less secure whether it be copying your data via adb or allowing the device to be used in case of theft or loss? Now perhaps I drank the Koolaid, but I know that if I ever lose either of my devices they are totally useless to the next person. Can you say the same thing?

---------- Post added at 07:42 AM ---------- Previous post was at 07:39 AM ----------

Are you sure FRP is usable with an unlocked bootloader?

edit: I was referring to this article: http://www.androidpolice.com/2015/0...evice-protection-feature-and-how-do-i-use-it/

I just reread it and they have edited it about midway through the article. It does seem that unlocking the bootloader will not disable FRP although there are conflicting reports. Now what about root? lol
[Google Pixel XL Questions & Answers] pcriz:
You have two paths. You flash firmware and get presented with the initial setup screen. You will get to a point where you have to log in with the last email used in the device. Unless you have my email and password you get no further.

Otherwise the device will boot to lock screen requesting your PIN. Please explain to me how you get around this? Adb is setup to only work on my machine and you can't revoke creditentials without being in the OS.

I don't know how many different ways to say it, I guess my question is can you detail a way someone can use my device if I lose it?
[Google Pixel XL Questions & Answers] bobby janow:
I don't know but I'm not a hacker nor have I researched it. So you are implying that even flashing a custom rom you cannot get into the device without a Google password? I find that intriguing to say the least. No custom roms bypass FRP?

My question to you is do you feel as safe with an unlocked bootloader as you would with it locked?
[Google Pixel XL Questions & Answers] pcriz:
If a custom recovery can't bypass the encryption why would a rom be any different. Not to mention you cannot flash a rom without getting into twrp, twrp cannot decrypt the file system without a pin or pattern. I feel even safer because rooted I can utilize apps that can work to protect me at the system level. I can block ads at the system level.

Its like saying you have a door with 5 padlocks, but wouldnt you feel safer with six?

I'd feel safer not using a mobile phone at all but here we are.
[Google Pixel XL Questions & Answers] bobby janow:
That's another story for another day, but I do agree. I can't test any of this, but from days long ago wasn't there a way to boot twrp, go into file manager and delete some files or copy them? Also on a quick search there are a couple of ways to bypass FRP which I will not describe or link to here. And with an unlocked bootloader you can flash any factory image that has the exploit still unpatched.

I guess I just don't see why an unlocked bootloader is such a plus these days. I know you need it for root, but other than ad blocking (which I still get with dns66 unrooted) why allow a hacker to "possibly" compromise your system? I don't know, perhaps I'm getting old and slightly tired of flashing. Needless to say, this is an interesting conversation and certainly thought provoking.
[Google Pixel XL Questions & Answers] pcriz:
There is also the story where Google paid a group of hackers 50 grand when they ran an exploit on a bootloader locked device that allowed them access to data on it. So even given that scenario with a locked bootloader and them not even having to touch the device, they were able access information on it.

Furthermore this is a doomsday scenario of one someone has to have my device, two they have to have the know how, 3 an image that can bypass the security checks that exist outside of the rom that is still allowed to boot without setting off tamper flags.

Also as far as removing files using twrp, again it cannot decrypt the filesystem without pin pattern so when you view the files in the twrp browser they are a bunch of folders with gibberish names and any attempt to make changes fails.

Not unlocking your bootloader is a choice. But let's not pretend that you open yourself up to a world of stolen data and exploits by unlocking it and rooting. That's the kind of scare tactics apps like AVG use to scare people into downloading them and paying for protection that is only good if you don't get attacked at the system level.

I saw the same links for frp bypass but here is the catcher. Unless fastboot is how they are passing it, they can just as easily do it on any device. Not just the bootloader unlocked ones.
[Google Pixel XL Questions & Answers] bobby janow:
Yes, it was in fastboot (I'm pretty sure) and only on an unlocked bootloader of which I'm sure. If the exploit does indeed work then a locked bootloader would be the protection and an unlocked one would mean those padlocks you have are useless. But that's a big "if" and I'm not about to try it. I'm not of the mindset that my data is protected even locked. Bottom line don't lose the device to a person in the know.

I still feel better having a locked bootloader as no one can do anything with my device no matter their skill levels. I just call, blacklist the IMEI, and scrounge up some money for a replacement with no worries. Besides, I use AP all the time and I'm not about to jump through hoops after each Google server update to get it to work again with hiding root. But that is just a personal preference and not really part of this discussion.

As for TWRP, I do remember that there was a way to delete a couple of .key files in order to remove the need to use a password. But that was some time ago before all this security stuff went into effect I believe. But as to the OP question, I believe there is more danger with an unlocked bootloader and root than without. However, if you need root for some reason just make sure you know what you are doing before you do it.

Hello there,

This is a guide to rollback

1) download the rollback package from this link; http://consumer.huawei.com/np/support/products/downloads/detail/p9lite-np.htm?id=93645

2) create a folder on your external SD cared named DLOAD and put the extracted UPDATE.APP file in there. (The file is inside the zip you downloaded)

3) Turn off the phone completely

4) Hold volume up, volume down and power simultaneously until you see the update screen (it will not UPdate, it will rollback

5) boot up the device and you should be on marshmallow

6) INSTALL OTA UPDATE (see more info in the PDF file provided in the zip)
