[Galaxy Note 8.0 (Tablet) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooti] Tubusy:
Expert advice needed please. This is a puzzle that someone might enjoy solving.

Although I have a fair bit of experience with flashing, I tried to flash my 8.0 for the first time and it has dramatically failed. It was probably my fault - not an uncommon story.

What is less common is that I am struggling to figure out how to undo the damage I've done. What's really making this difficult is that no computer recognises the device as USB any more so I can't use Odin, Kies, etc to repair or return to stock. I have tried everything I can think of to deal with the USB issue, the usual cable, driver, port nonsense. I don't think the USB problem is Windows now.

I suspect one of these things may have happened:

The USB port just went bad coincidentally during this flash process (charge, no data). I have ordered a new port but it will take weeks to arrive.

Has the device come out of Developer/USB debugging mode somehow? I can't tell because I can't boot to an OS.

I wonder if the ROM flash has corrupted the firmware the deals with USB - is that possible? Where is the devices USB drivers located? Is it in the bootloader, something like BIOS?

I'm suspicious of the bootloader, as the screen is weirdly corrupted now when I turn on or reboot the device - fuzzy white lines rather than a logo - but that disappears when OS tries to load, or I go into Recovery/Download.

I actually did do a backup of the original ROM to the SD card; but restoring it doesn't work, just produces an endless Samsung boot, even if I then wipe and reset.

I can get into Download mode, and a Recovery (Philz for N5120) but since I can't connect to the devise with USB in any way, it's very hard to get the Recovery to flash anything new and useful. I did put my SD Card in another phone and copied over the stock ROM zip from Samsung, but it refuses to flash - I think because it doesn't like Philz Recovery? I can't think how to replace Philz Recovery with another by flashing, without USB.

I may have to wait to replace the USB port, but I fear that won't fix it. Until then, I can only think of one other thing to try, and that is to copy a ROM onto the SD Card through another phone, and try to flash it. Lineage doesn't flash, and nor does the stock zip I got from Samsung. Would anything else work?

Can I flash an alternative recovery from within the recovery? Philz only lets me flash zips, not img or tars.

So it's quite a mess, but if anyone has a brilliant idea of how to get out of this, I'd love to hear it.

THANK YOU if you have a genius idea.
[Galaxy Note 8.0 (Tablet) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooti] Tubusy:
So after a few days of working on this, I did manage to resolve it, and I thought I'd just add a note about how I escaped this obscure problem.

The device went bad because I stupidly flashed an incompatible Recovery to the device and somewhere between doing this, backup and restoring and flashing, it corrupted mostly everything including something in the bootloader.

Oddly enough, the solution seemed to be to mess up the Recovery even more by flashing something even more random - it seems this provoked the device into restoring its own basic Recovery. Using this to wipe and reset the device somehow enabled Download mode's USB interface to start working again so I was able to use Kies to return to stock, which repaired everything including the bootloader.

Finally, I flashed the correct Recovery for this device, and then managed to flash the ROM I wanted. A happy ending to a stressful story; the device now works better than it ever has done before.

Today i was searching for lg g5 roms etc, i fount out many but not a single one for lg g5 at&t and the reason is cause there is no root for lg g5 at&t, so why there is no root for at&t lg g5?
[AT&T LG G5 Questions & Answers] jimchee:
Because bootloader is locked never to be unlockable, so no root
[AT&T LG G5 Questions & Answers] Simran62:
On other phones its unlockable, why not on att g5 ?

Because AT&T and LG won't allow it only T-Mobile, rs977, and H840 and european 850 are unlockable at this time

[General Topics] Bazaa:
Sorry for the newbie question, but I'm very confused right now ^^; even after a search on the forum I still don't know how to do this :confused:

I have a Mio A701, and I have a few mp3 files with japanese tags. I have installed a japanese font (I think I did it right), but WMP still doesn't display them correctly. I installed LetsJapanNo5 and it worked, but the hardware buttons stopped working and made the ppc crash too much, so I ended up uninstalling it.

So, can anyone explain to me how to exactly have japanese characters correctly displayed, without having to use another ROM?

Thank you very much for any reply, and sorry if I made a useless thread :o
[General Topics] Falk:
Just some clues on how to get started as I don't have the time to search around for the links now - Search for

FotgottenNationsNo5.cab (no typo)

MSGothic Font for WM5.cab

and IME_31J_F.cab / IME_31J_QVGA_F.cab if you also want to write Japanese. Install everything to your device (not the storage card) and you should be fine without LetsJapanNo5x.cab. I got it working under WM5 and WM6. Thanks to Asukal for his great work - you rock!
[General Topics] Bazaa:
Thank you for your quick reply.

I didn't find MSGothic for WM5, at least in cab or exe format (didn't really want to mess with the registry), but I installed echinaNO5 anyway, and then FotgottenNationsNo5.cab. While my ppc doesn't crash so often now, the hardware buttons still don't work, but as soon as I remove FotgottenNations it starts working again :mad:

Is there any way of solving this?

egl , hw , module from stock to miui 8 redmi3 , wifi folder in etc from stock replace all and skip all lib , bin , vendor , xbin

[Android] unknown:
DO you fix wifi ? :confused::confused:
[Android] yankit293:

Hi, I just tried your ROM, and did not manage to record videos with camera. Do you have any idea what might cause this ?

I'm also interested on your port method :

you get Redmi 3 official ROM

you change boot.img

?

I would like to try on my side but I don't really know how you do it, and it seems that your ports (MIUI 8 or MIUI Pro 9) are quite stable and nice ;).

So can you explain in details ? Thanks anyway !

And last thing, as you ported MIUI Pro also, I'm interested of your port/build method too, and perhaps you know how to add a language to the ROM ? Some little things are better on MIUI Pro, but it's not in french...

Hi again, I've tested almost all MIUI or MIUI Pro roms for the Lenovo Vibe K5/K5 Plus (I'm in fact on your MIUI Pro 9 for the moment), but I'm looking for a french ROM. The problem is that on several builds (the one from [MENTION=6294867]subha785[/MENTION] here https://xdaforums.com/k5-plus/development/unofficial-t3653074, yours in this thread, and the OneTeam one called Lenovo_Vibe_K5_MIUI8_V6.11.24_Deftones-OneTeam.zip), I did not succed to record a video.

What happens is :

I open the camera app

Taking pictures works fine

Taking video seem to work (the record button changes to stop and the time is displayed)

But when I go to my gallery or the file explorer, I cannot find my video

Can you help me ? Is it a configuration problem (I really searched for it), or a build.prop or something else ? All is working fine on your MIUI Pro 9 build (https://xdaforums.com/k5-plus/development/unofficial-t3650678)

Is it possible to root stock nougat that I updated from LG bridge with Magisk13.3? Im just discovering Magisk and obviously I dont want to get ahead of myself but I really need root at the moment. any ideas?
[T-Mobile LG V10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jsu718:
Not yet.
[T-Mobile LG V10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] speedingcheetah:
No. Does not appear so.

Only if u were already rooted/unlocked/ with TWRP and flashed the Update.zip stock rom already posted. Then u can flash Magisk and root works fine.

Upgrading via OTA or LG Official restore tool (Bridge) re-locks down everything as its reflashing it to pure stock.

I would assume that current means/exploits have not worked on this new version.

The V10 is largely abandoned...(cause V20 been out a while now and soon to the come the V30.

Far as I can tell, only 1 maybe 2 people working on this phone in their spare time....soo....Don't hold your breath.

If a rooted device is very important to you, other than waiting, one could buy a used V10 (or V20) that hasn't been updated off Swappa for pretty cheap. Or, sometimes folks sell already modded/rooted devices. (thats how i got both my V10's).
