[Galaxy A3, A5, A7, A8, A9 Q&A, Help & Troubleshoot] fr31ght:
Hopefully Somebody can help.

My Galaxy A5 had Ressurection remix custom rom on it for a little over a year. Yesterday I decided I wanted to go back to stock firmware, I flashed the 4.4.4 stock firmware through odin and all was fine.

Then when I tried to OTA update to 6.0.1 it wasn't available so I figured I could go the odin route. So i downloaded the 6.0.1 firmware for my version, and went to flash it with odin. The flash failed, i thought no big deal. At this point the phone was still in download mode. About 30 seconds after the flash failed, i unplugged the USB cable. I figured 30 seconds would be enough time for odin to finish anything it needed to do.

Once I unplugged it download mode was still on (Even though I had auto reboot ticked in odin). I tried to restart the phone but it wouldn't boot into the OS.

Currently it wont boot into download mode, the OS or recovery.

I've tried loads of button combinations and tried connecting it to odin again, but neither odin, or my pc will recognise the phone.

Anybody have any suggestions?

If i hold down the power button for 10 seconds the phone vibrates, that's the only bit of life in it.

Hi Guys,

Seems like the soak for Android O is starting..

There's some other source?

This information is confidential.
[Moto Z Guides, News, & Discussion] enetec:
It is confirmed by a lot of online articles... anyway they don't specify if by OTA or by a flashall...
[Moto Z Guides, News, & Discussion] SnoopDoge:
posting news about the soak test is not confidential or illegal, however extracting the update, releasing pics and generally talking about it in public with people who are not in the test IS illegal
[Moto Z Guides, News, & Discussion] alexandre.cgd:
You do not know what you're talking about.
[Moto Z Guides, News, & Discussion] SnoopDoge:
what exactly do you mean? i was soak testing the nougat last year and one of the agreement was to keep it confidential and not posting pics and secrets right and left on the internet
[Moto Z Guides, News, & Discussion] alexandre.cgd:
Do not even disclose who participates in the program. Like you did now.

:good:
[Moto Z Guides, News, & Discussion] SnoopDoge:
im in the MFN program, that doesn't necessary mean im a soak tester, they're chosen by random, and since the soak test finished a year ago and motorola finished rolling out the update, im at liberty to say whether i was in the test or not, adding to that, im G4+ user not Z, so if there's an Oreo soak test for the G4+ it would be around Jan-Feb even maybe Apr
[Moto Z Guides, News, & Discussion] MrBr1ckfy:
That's it.

Also, today Motorola have done an official pronouncement about this information, and thats true...

Even if motorola talk about it in public, why cant we do this? haha
[Moto Z Guides, News, & Discussion] SnoopDoge:
exactly. what if i have an android news website, how im gonna post news about the tests and share the experience? and where did you see that pronouncement today?

[Xiaomi Redmi Note 3 Questions & Answers] Akkuron:
Stuck on "Connect to the network to activate device" after flashing official ROM

So my phone started randomly rebooting a few days ago and after a few tries to fix it, I managed to brick it altogether (seemed dead except for the red EDL led flashing when on charger). After DIY'ing a deep flash cable, I was able to get the PC to recognize it and flash the latest official stable Kenzo MIUI. I'd tried Kate before, but that just led to bootloops. Anyway, finally the phone booted normally and I went through the regular initial setup, until I got to this one screen, which reads:

Then it eternally tries to connect to the network and never does. I have 2 options below: Connect to Wi-Fi and Search for SIM card. The problem is that the Wi-Fi option detects no networks (there's definitely a few available) and the SIM is already inserted (it asked me for a PIN) and is visibly detecting a signal, but no mobile data is activated. The installation even asked for permission to send an automated SMS at some point, which succeed (and I even got a reply, which I can't read) but that did nothing to remedy the situation.

I can't leave this screen at all and the device isn't activating either WiFi or mobile data.

What gives?

My bootloader is locked and TWRP isn't installed, btw. I'd never fiddled with the stock ROM before this little adventure and everything I've flashed since has been official.
[Xiaomi Redmi Note 3 Questions & Answers] VaibhavKumarReddy:
Make sure you're connected to WiFi with reasonable speed.

You must use the same MI account to login which was used earlier, i.e. before the brick.

Try flashing with option clean all lock through EDL once again.

If none of the above options work, try these :

> Find help on this thread http://en.miui.com/thread-424945-1-1.html

> RBFsoft tool to unlock (Unofficial)(tested by me)

> Visit service center last resort.
[Xiaomi Redmi Note 3 Questions & Answers] Akkuron:
I'm not, I already mentioned the phone detects no networks.

I intend to, but I don't even get the option.

It's what I did in the first place.

Thanks for trying to help, but I'm not trying to unlock the phone or skip the activation, I'm trying to go through with it. To clarify, my only issue is that my phone is not connecting to the internet.

Typing that out, I'm guessing I should attempt to flash a modem.
[Xiaomi Redmi Note 3 Questions & Answers] VaibhavKumarReddy:
Okay, I got it let me know the model number of your device 2015116 or 2015161.

It's written on the box of the device.
[Xiaomi Redmi Note 3 Questions & Answers] Akkuron:
Sadly the box is 2500km away right now. I can PM you the product page that shows the exact make+ROM if that helps you identify the model.

edit: It is the Kenzo version according to the product page on the shop at least.
[Xiaomi Redmi Note 3 Questions & Answers] VaibhavKumarReddy:
Yeah send pm
[Xiaomi Redmi Note 3 Questions & Answers] Akkuron:
So I've flashed a ROM that lets me bypass the initial activation screen and access the phone's settings. My fear has been confirmed that the phone has lost the IMEI/baseband info etc.

Is there a way to find the IMEI except the phone's box so I can follow a guide to fix this?
[Xiaomi Redmi Note 3 Questions & Answers] VaibhavKumarReddy:
You have a Redmi note 3 pro aka Kenzo, LHOCNDD means it came with the Chinese version of the ROM installed.

But to recover your device first try to clean flash & lock the ROM you have, also mention the package name ( Try flashing Chinese developer )

I know you may feel this is an inappropriate solution but you'll require unlocked bootloader enter developer options to flash using fastboot commands.

So, right now you can't flash modem files NON-HLOS.bin or a full ROM with fastboot commands http://en.miui.com/thread-469662-1-1.html or http://en.miui.com/thread-250455-1-1.html

Now the only option you have is to unlock unofficially http://en.miui.com/thread-345728-1-1.html , after you recover your device you can lock it & factory reset.

But remember not to use commands Fastboot flash aboot emmc_appsboot.mbn & Fastboot flash abootbak emmc_appsboot.mbn if you have unlocked bootloader unofficially.

---------- Post added at 07:31 PM ---------- Previous post was at 07:19 PM ----------

Okay, so which ROM did you flash MIUI 7? mention package name & http://en.miui.com/thread-375213-1-1.html use this guide to recover IMEI if you don't have the box I doubt if there's IMEI written on the label as our device has a non-removable battery.

So, you need the box & don't proceed in a hurry without proper instructions.
[Xiaomi Redmi Note 3 Questions & Answers] Akkuron:
I've found the IMEI number and almost got through the instructions in the link you posted. My problem is when the time comes to use WriteDualIMEI(W+G_eMMC) it asks for 2 IMEI numbers and not one. Pressing start does nothing with only one of them typed in, but I my box has no second number on it.

edit: ROM that first let me in was official 7.2.3 which is apparently the only version that didn't require validation, now I'm on the rooted Sphinx ROM from that link though.
[Xiaomi Redmi Note 3 Questions & Answers] VaibhavKumarReddy:
Don't make any changes to the current setup, let me gather some info & get back to you.

By the way, dual sim variant will have 2 IMEI numbers.

Edit: First, let me know the baseband & IMEI shows unknown or 0?

---------- Post added at 02:12 AM ---------- Previous post was at 01:27 AM ----------

If it shows 0, then write same IMEI in both slots & proceed.
[Xiaomi Redmi Note 3 Questions & Answers] Akkuron:
Shows up as unknown. I've read it's supposed to have 2 IMEIs but only 1 is on the box (and the sticker inside the device).
[Xiaomi Redmi Note 3 Questions & Answers] VaibhavKumarReddy:
Follow this guide & recover EFS

https://xdaforums.com/redmi-note-3/how-to/flash-recover-efs-snapdragon-t3406789 then write IMEI same in both slots.
[Xiaomi Redmi Note 3 Questions & Answers] Akkuron:
Flashing the 2 modemst files through fastboot just caused a bootloop.

edit: got out of the bootloop by flashing a stock developer ROM (miui9) and now my baseband is recognized. My IMEI numbers are a mix of unknowns and 0s. Problem is the phone isn't rooted now.

Should I flash TWRP and root it with that, or just try to flash that rooted Sphinx ROM again? Don't wanna brick it again now that we're getting somewhere.
[Xiaomi Redmi Note 3 Questions & Answers] VaibhavKumarReddy:
Can you run the command fastboot oem device-info & send the result?
[Xiaomi Redmi Note 3 Questions & Answers] Akkuron:
(bootloader) Device tampered: false

(bootloader) Device unlocked: false

Please don't edit posts, just send a new reply.

As you're on MIUI 9 Global ROM, unlock right away if you have official permissions.

If not http://en.miui.com/thread-345728-1-1.html unlock unofficially & skip EFS restore, proceed to write IMEI.

when you flash a ROM provide the name of the package.
[Xiaomi Redmi Note 3 Questions & Answers] Akkuron:
Writing the IMEI doesn't work because I don't have root permissions on the stock global ROM (kenzo_global_images_7.11.6_20171106.0000.00_6.0_global). Is there a way to enter diagnostic mode without it, or should I just root?

Update: Rooted, but WriteDualIMEI(W+G_eMMC) gives me a "No diag port" error, despite detecting the port (COM11) that the phone is connected on. Device Manager confirms as it recognizes it as "Qualcomm HS-USB Android DIAG 901D (COM11). Tools like QPST and RF NV Manager can interface with the phone normally. I tried writing the IMEI through RF NV Manager, but it only went into IMEI2. IMEI1 is "unknown" still.
[Xiaomi Redmi Note 3 Questions & Answers] VaibhavKumarReddy:
Hold on, you're making the situation worse.

Is the bootloader unlocked & USB debugging enabled?

type adb devices to check communication.

I'll try to find some other solution, so have patience.

Only proceed on your own if I'm dead.
[Xiaomi Redmi Note 3 Questions & Answers] Akkuron:
Fastboot oem device-info says the bootloader is locked, but I'm pretty sure I'd unlocked it at some point.

USB debugging is enabled.

ADB devices detects the phone normally.
[Xiaomi Redmi Note 3 Questions & Answers] VaibhavKumarReddy:
ROM version, Bootloader unlock method & when did you unlock?

---------- Post added at 03:39 PM ---------- Previous post was at 03:32 PM ----------

Did you restore EFS before writing IMEI?
[Xiaomi Redmi Note 3 Questions & Answers] Akkuron:
I unlocked right before flashing the recovery and rooting. Also, yes, I did flash modemst1 and modemst2 before writing the IMEI. Did it twice just to make sure, but IMEI is still unknown.

Just to gather up all info on the current situation:

ROM: kenzo_global_images_7.11.6_20171106.0000.00_6.0_global

Baseband: working normally

IMEI (Slot 1): Unknown

IMEI SV (Slot 1): 00

IMEI (Slot 2): working normally

IMEI SV (Slot 2): Unknown

SIM slot works normally and is getting signal, I can call and send sms, but not access data networks/internet. WiFi also not working.
[Xiaomi Redmi Note 3 Questions & Answers] VaibhavKumarReddy:
Okay at least there's some improvement, but I'm sure the efs restore is not going through successfully.

Make sure the Bootloader is unlocked type fastboot oem unlock-go & repeat the whole process of writing IMEI with Qualcomm QPST tool.
[Xiaomi Redmi Note 3 Questions & Answers] Akkuron:
I'm having an issue with the unlocking it seems. Old MiFlash is having troubles flashing anything to the phone and newer MiFlash doesn't give me the "advanced" option when selecting files.
[Xiaomi Redmi Note 3 Questions & Answers] VaibhavKumarReddy:
Are you talking about unlocking bootloader?

You're not able to perform steps in any of the guides completely.

The issue must be fixed by now but you're doing random stuff.

Visit service centre tell them you' Flashed Kate firmware on Kenzo '
[Xiaomi Redmi Note 3 Questions & Answers] Akkuron:
Previous post should be pretty clear. The newer MiFlash tool does not have the "advanced" option that is required by the guide and the older one isn't able to flash the ROM.
[Xiaomi Redmi Note 3 Questions & Answers] VaibhavKumarReddy:
Not clear, the older version unable to flash the ROM? send error message as well as tell me the ROM packages you have right now.
[Xiaomi Redmi Note 3 Questions & Answers] Akkuron:
"Not enough storage is available to process this command. (0x80070008: Max buffer sector is 256)"

That's the error MiFLash 2015.10.28.0 is giving me.

ROM is kenzo_global_images_7.11.6_20171106.0000.00_6.0_global. MiFlash 2017.4.25.0 can flash it without problem, but as I said, it doesn't offer the "advanced" option, only lets me select a ROM folder.

edit: Replaced the file manually in the ROM folder and flashed it with the newest MiFlash.

Pasting straight from cmd. I think the new esf went through because my second IMEI is now back to 0 instead of the actual number that went through previously. Despite that, IMEI 1 is still unknown.
[Xiaomi Redmi Note 3 Questions & Answers] VaibhavKumarReddy:
without EFS restored we cannot proceed with the same tutorial, try this :

flash this rom ;

https://docs.google.com/uc?id=0B4oUiKSTOb7oYjNpeEtLLUlSNXc&export=download

with mi flash ;

mi flash 64 bit :

https://drive.google.com/open?id=0B4oUiKSTOb7oSEtmMEI1cWtFbWs

qpst ;

https://drive.google.com/open?id=0B4oUiKSTOb7oSG8zRWVwWkNwS2c
[Xiaomi Redmi Note 3 Questions & Answers] Akkuron:
Flashed it successfully, got up to the "setprop sys.usb.config diag,adb" (which went through successfully), but QPST keeps finding and losing the phone. I added the port manually but it keeps appearing and disappearing from the list.

Flashing the ROM lost the baseband again btw.
[Xiaomi Redmi Note 3 Questions & Answers] VaibhavKumarReddy:
No probs if you lost baseband but QPST tool must work, can you try setting up on another PC?
[Xiaomi Redmi Note 3 Questions & Answers] Akkuron:
Couldn't get it to work on the Sphinx ROM. It does communicate normally on an official ROM after rooting (kenzo_global_images_7.11.6_20171106.0000.00_6.0_global - same one I've mentioned earlier in the thread), however, restoring the qcn file on that one doesn't fix the IMEI #1.
[Xiaomi Redmi Note 3 Questions & Answers] VaibhavKumarReddy:
Sphinx rom has root but locked bootloader, just unlock it with command fastboot oem unlock-go & restore qcn.

Is the ROM in Gdrive sphinx rom?

we're running out of options if this method fails. There's one last method I can suggest you & that's hit or die.
[Xiaomi Redmi Note 3 Questions & Answers] Akkuron:
Tried that, but it just reboots after unlocking and relocks itself. And yeah, think it is.

Might as well. I've all but given up on it myself.

Hi,

Definitely don't flash k3gxx version (SM-G900H). It has different hardware architecture (SoC) -> Exynos. Yours is Turkish carrier branded, Qualcomm based model and seems to have the same technical specification as SM-G900F.

So, I would try klte but full nandroid backup before of course.

Good luck.
[Galaxy S 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Ibuprophen:
According to the following (side by side) comparison link, the SM-G900FQ is identical to the SM-G900F in every way but, the region in which they are sold. The G900F is sold in Europe and the G900FQ is sold in Turkey.

http://www.phonemore.com/compare/ph...f-16gb-vs-samsung-galaxy-s5-sm-g900fq/4572185

I would bet (my ex-wife LOL!) that if you were to use the LineageOS (the thread link is below) for the klte (which is the one for the G900F) then you should be good to go.
