[Huawei P9 Questions & Answers] benjamen50:
I've done a few screen replacements before for the Huawei P9 I do agree it's difficult like iFixit says.

The hard parts are removing the vibration motor, the battery and the logic board sometimes as it has small clips which you need to slide the board out.

Also need to transfer thermal paste from the old screen assembly the pink stuff to the new screen assembly if it doesn't have it.

Make sure you get the full screen assembly with the frame not just the screen itself.

The screens are fairly cheap if you get them from China, costs around $40 USD.

[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] adamz13:
Hi,I have a Moto G from 2014,was originally a Cricket phone, unlocked after 6 months.i got it used and am using atnt gophone service and it is Slow,often the text input online takes 5sec to appear,my email logins take 10sec or more to complete and often it takes 5-6taps for any response. Is there a rom that people recommend to speed up this phone.if it lightened the bloatware that's​ fine,all I use are Firefox​, which is very slow, open office, phone n text plus pix. Also am unable to access inner part s of some websites, pages won't load.

Not sure what exact version this is, just says Moto G,sys version peregrine 21.1.45 cricket cricket and rom is 3.4.42-g5263e7f hudson cm@ilclbldh#30 dated 6.29.14

Appreciate any help or information about this.
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] Excudent:
Hard to get something silk smooth on this phone, but I am currently using

- Nexus Expierience

with ZER0 Byte Kernel

You should look around the Moto G 2014 Forum, Might just find something that gives you the expierience you want.

Might be possible that you have a 1st Gen Moto G (If it only says Moto G, not Moto G 2014).

If thats the case, than the forum you should visit is the Moto G Forum

Today it suddenly happened to my device too. I flashed your img and the device booted again, thank you! However, seeing you disabled some cores, would it be caused by a bad core in the device? So, a hardware failure? Or is the boot.img simply corrupted in some sort of way? I'm trying to pinpoint the issue here.

edit: flashed the stock boot.img and the device was back into loop. So it's probably is a hardware defect. :(
[Nexus 6P General] KingMike67:
[MENTION=5288606]nabears101[/MENTION] you are AMAZING! Outstanding job.

My phone has life again (even though I already bought a OP5 to replace it)
[Nexus 6P General] XCnathan32:
That would be my guess, I'm trying to figure out if there's a way to debug the bootloader so I can pinpoint the problem with the BIG cores.
[Nexus 6P General] XCnathan32:
I'll go ahead and upload a version for android O later today
[Nexus 6P General] XCnathan32:
To anyone who wants to make a boot.img with 4 cores: It's actually fairly simple, you need to get abootimg tools on linux. Then unpack the boot.img with abootimg -x (name of your boot.img) Once the image is extracted, there should be a file named bootimg.cfg, edit that file and put in maxcpus=4 in the line that starts with cmdline =. Then repack the image with abootimg --create myboot.img -f bootimg.cfg -k zImage -r initrd.img And viola! You have a (half) working kernel.
[Nexus 6P General] javitomen:
Thanks man you dont know how thankfull i am, i hope your release of the android O to test it, thanks again for your work :good:
[Nexus 6P General] XCnathan32:

lol thanks man, i hope you can fix it
[Nexus 6P General] DEVILOPS 007:
I don't have this bootloop issue but it is extremely reassuring to know there is a fix even though it means limiting performance and such an easy fix too. Making the modifications seems very easy which makes me wonder why it's taken so long for someone to do a modification like this.
[Nexus 6P General] XCnathan32:
If you're interested, I made a post here https://xdaforums.com/nexus-6p/help/dev-help-debugging-ramoops-bootlooping-t3640826 that semi-identifies the problem, I'm trying to get help on how to fix it.

[Nexus 6P General] AgentBEATS:
Flashing TWRP worked for me and I now have access to recovery but other than that my phone still stops booting up at the Google image. The 4 core boot stopped the loop but my phone still won't start. I've tried flashing both stock and PureNexus and wiping data through TWRP but it still no startup.
[Nexus 6P General] metallicant:
BLOD.......I was at 7.1.2 beta with bootloader locked.

Followed directions and I got as far as Serial number successfully showing at the cmd prompt. Tried to unlock bootloader and no success. Error message oem unlock is not allowed.... :(

Any help would be appreciated....

DISREGARD.....got phone to finally bootup and then went into developers options and enabled debugging and allowed bootloader to be unlocked.... SUCCESS now applying fixes... Phone now boots up...

Thanks so much!!
[Nexus 6P General] bywaet:
There is the limit in dropbox. I can't download files.
[Nexus 6P General] Mediadriven:
Same problem here. If anyone has a mirror for the file it would be much appreciated.

I managed to get the phone to boot into android using a hair dryer to heat it up while it was bootlooping. stayed in android long enough to enable oem unlock under developer options as well as enabling usb debugging. Rebooted back to bootloader, flashed 7.1.2 factory image (I was on android O). Was about to download the 4 core img file and complete the fix and surprise! daily traffic limit reached for the day. So close.
[Nexus 6P General] tjchuot287:
I tried your guide but got stuck at this screen. Any solutions?
[Nexus 6P General] Neontc:
I'm still not able to boot into the 4 core recovery :/. I even tried fastboot boot <recovery> and still sent me back to the bootloop
[Nexus 6P General] Vermanucci:
mirror

I wish this fix worked for me.

mirror:

https://dailyuploads.net/6fv6rlnfzyjh - uncheck download with addons before hitting download

OR

https://dropapk.com/9fzzkv929g7q - lots of popups but I don't think they have a daily limit
[Nexus 6P General] Ather:
how long did you heat up the phone if i may ask?
[Nexus 6P General] XCnathan32:
I haven't tried changing the GPU governor, I'll test that out and see how it goes.
[Nexus 6P General] XCnathan32:
Mirrors up, sorry about that.
[Nexus 6P General] Mediadriven:
I heated for about 10 minutes. Had to wear an oven mitt to hold it.
[Nexus 6P General] Vermanucci:
no dice

Tried this on 3 other 6Ps, none of them can get into recovery.

What else does the recovery depend on to come up that we can troubleshoot?
[Nexus 6P General] XCnathan32:
My advice for that is almost always gonna be, flash latest stock firmware for 7.1.2 again, re flash the images, and wait up to 30 minutes
[Nexus 6P General] XCnathan32:
You tried my recovery on 3 different devices and it didn't work on any?? What about the boot.img?
[Nexus 6P General] Vermanucci:
Did the steps in this order, flash to stock 7.1.2 N2G48B > flashed N2G48B_4Cores.img > flashed twrp3_1_1_4Cores.img

Still loops and attempts to access recovery loops too.

Temp booting recovery without flashing recovery fails on all of them too
[Nexus 6P General] Noiz:
Can we get a mirror for the 5X stuff too? :)
[Nexus 6P General] XCnathan32:
Damn, I guess you got seriously unlucky. Does it get to the boot animation, or does it look on the Google logo?
[Nexus 6P General] XCnathan32:
I don't have access to a computer right now, but I'll upload a mirror when I get home.
[Nexus 6P General] Vermanucci:

Yup twrp 3.2 works fine

---------- Post added at 12:25 PM ---------- Previous post was at 12:22 PM ----------

It is because you only flash boot image after flashing rom. The next thing you need to flash to avoid such password prompt whenever rebooting into recovery is to flash any root solution. Any flash able root zip will disable encryption.

Nothing wrong with twrp 3.2 by squabbi.

If no disable encryption being put either from root flash zip, or modified boot image, the phone will start encryption by default

Android Oreo 8.1 Final 4core Boot Image

Hello everyone!

Edit: I've created a different thread that I will be updating whenever someone wants a boot image patched or a new security patch comes out. Currently it just has the modified stock boot images. But it does come with instructions on how to patch your own boot image (which I'm still working on): https://xdaforums.com/nexus-6p/gene...loop-death-t3716330/post74774303#post74774303

Here is a patched version of the OPM1.171019.011 build of Android 8.1 (Final): AFH Link

Others have reported that the boot image from the 2nd developer preview of Android 8.1 works, but here it is regardless.

This boot image has remove dm-verify for the /system and /vendor partitions, and removed forced encryption (hopefully).

To try and use TWRP with this and you've been having password decryption issues, try this this will wipe all of your data:

Flash 8.1 final factory images (boot, system, vendor, bootloader and radio)

Flash 4core-patch boot image (provided above)

Use the fastboot command: fastboot format userdata (to wipe the internal storage and remove encryption)

Flash 4core TWRP

Reboot into recovery

TWRP should not ask for a /data decryption password

...

Profit $$$

Happy flashing! :)
[Nexus 6P General] Eddie_Brock:
:good:

Thanks @squabbi , I know what I'm doing tonight.

Edit/Update: I did the instructions as described above, and not only can I get into TWRP now, but I finally was able to reflash Magisk for root and/or SafetyNet!

Nexus 6p, bootlooping, was running android 8.0 or 8.1, don't remember.

Tried many things according to this thread. However no luck. Tried flash to stock 8.1, 7.2 and then flash the 4 core bootloader. All same, 'unlock warning', 'google' cycling.

Feel desperate....

And I am new to this type of work. I notice when I use flash-all to flash stock rom, I saw:

"

...

archive does not contain 'boot.sig'

archive does not contain 'dtbo.img'

archive does not contain 'dt.img'

extracting recovery.img (18 MB) to disk... took 0.055s

extracting system.img (1912 MB) to disk... took 11.952s

archive does not contain 'system.sig'

archive does not contain 'vbmeta.img'

extracting vendor.img (188 MB) to disk... took 1.286s

archive does not contain 'vendor.sig'

...

"

But the flashing process is completed. Not sure if this could be the reason why I cannot get out of bootloop.

Any suggestion would be so good

Hey guys, my 6P randomly shut off today while taking pictures and din't boot back up. I was on RR 7.1.2, rooted, unlocked bootloader, TWRP installed.

My PC recognizes my fastboot 6P device but fails to boot even after flashing the 4 core fix on the first page. It keeps restarting on the "Google" logo.

Got phone working with heat, but not the usual heat related fix

My phone has been down for a month and in that time I reused to do a full flash and wipe userdata in the hope that somehow I'd recovery some data that wasn't backed up. I tried everything.. flashed stock images, flashed modified 4 core images, flashed modified 4 core recovery... everything. The phone would do nothing but boot loop. Although it made no sense I tried using heat today (my bootloader was already unlocked). I flashed n2g48b, modified n2g48b 4 core boot ROM, and modified 4 core TWRP recovery. I plugged the phone into the wall charger and let it boot loop. I took my hair dryer, set it to high heat, low fan, and had it pointed at the phone about an inch away focusing on the general area between the finger print scanner and the camera. In less than 10 minutes the phone booted! I let it get into the OS and quickly backed up everything I needed and after started experimenting. I flashed TWRP 3.2.1-0 (not the modified 4 core version) and I was able to boot into recovery fine. I then flashed the stock n2g48c OS ROMs, formatted cache, and formatted dalvik cache. I was able to boot into the OS. I've now down multiple reboots and the phone is working fine. Not really sure what is going on here, but I'm going to see how long I can run like this. I will post any updates I have. Wanted to put this out there because I couldn't find any instance of a person being able to get into the phone when the 4 core images weren't working for them.
