Just a quick explanation (about your log, excluding the obvious symlink stuff):

Starting services...
Start service sys_qseecomd: running.
Start service sys_vold: running.

^^ Services are up and running

About to run vdc...
Connected to vold (213 581 default ret=5452)

^^ Connection to vold (using vdc) established and the correct reply is received, this is good, but it does not require all files/service/etc to be running properly, the above *connect* actually should only need vold, even without any services needed for real decryption.

Timeout waiting for 585
vdc cryptfs result (passwd): (ret=28160)
Timeout waiting for 590
vdc cryptfs result (hex_pw): (ret=28160)

^^ Even though vold is running, it's still waiting for something, so the fail-safe times out after 30 seconds, to avoid you looking at the TWRP splash forever ;)

Since vold isn't returning at all, it indicates it's waiting for some feedback from some underlying *service* used in the decryption cycle.

Could this be kernel related somehow?

First time I built twrp it's a little different than roms for me.

I appreciate all your help with this.
[HTC U11 Life Guides, News, & Discussion] Captain_Throwback:
What kernel are you using in there?
[HTC U11 Life Guides, News, & Discussion] twinnfamous:
I'm using the boot.img zimage renamed to kernel. I hope I at least did that right.
[HTC U11 Life Guides, News, & Discussion] dpryor88:
The correct kernel source is also required to build custom ROMs for the device, right?
[HTC U11 Life Guides, News, & Discussion] nkk71:
On behalf of Captain_Throwback, I'm authorizing myself to say:

No.
[HTC U11 Life Guides, News, & Discussion] dpryor88:
Probably a noob question, but what do you put in your manifest if there's no kernel source on GitHub? I'm learning..

I guess what I should ask, is how do I extract the kernel from the device?
[HTC U11 Life Guides, News, & Discussion] twinnfamous:
Custom roms can be a sense rom still with same boot image and doesn't require building from source. If you're talking about lineage or aosp then u may need to build a kernel to get everything working but if there's Android 1 variants the source shouldn't be hard to come by.
[HTC U11 Life Guides, News, & Discussion] nkk71:
Given your last two posts, I'm uncertain whether you are asking about TWRP or ROM build[ing], in the latter I am not interested at all and won't bother at all, I have never built a ROM from source myself, and pretty sure it's never going to happen, not my *thing* (needs more bandwidth than I have for too little interest in my case)

But if you're talking about TWRP, then you can get the kernel from you stock recovery or stock boot.img, it may need a bit of tweaking (for touch and *stuff* CBTP has mentioned), but other than that, in the absence of kernel source code, it's good enough.
[HTC U11 Life Guides, News, & Discussion] dpryor88:
Thank you. And I'm interested in rom building. I've built from source for other devices, but with git sources for kernel and whatnot already.

Just a bit lost here..
[HTC U11 Life Guides, News, & Discussion] nkk71:
Like I said, I don't build ROM(s) neither from source nor from another base, I simply *bugged in* because you guys are building TWRP and using vold_decrypt, and I have some experience with vold_decrypt which is why I passed by to say hi.

Simple ;)
[HTC U11 Life Guides, News, & Discussion] dpryor88:
Thanks though :) still appreciated!
[HTC U11 Life Guides, News, & Discussion] twinnfamous:

[MENTION=2605798]nkk71[/MENTION] I pulledthis from the tmp folder. I'm not surewhat I'm looking for.
[HTC U11 Life Guides, News, & Discussion] nkk71:
From a brief look (reading strace on the phone isn't really good), but seems like you're having permission issues:

openat(AT_FDCWD, "/dev/qseecom", O_RDWR) = -1 EACCES (Permission denied)

https://github.com/omnirom/android_...ecrypt/init.recovery.vold_decrypt.qseecomd.rc
[HTC U11 Life Guides, News, & Discussion] twinnfamous:
so where should I start with this
[HTC U11 Life Guides, News, & Discussion] nkk71:
I would manually chmod the 2 files mentioned to 777 in an adb shell while in TWRP, then rerun the decrypt (obviously without rebooting, otherwise the permissions will be reset)

If it works correctly then you know what the problem is, if the error persists, then it could be something else.
[HTC U11 Life Guides, News, & Discussion] twinnfamous:
OK thanks I'm on it
[HTC U11 Life Guides, News, & Discussion] nkk71:
since the "on fs" isn't setting the permissions correctly, you could add it in your device tree's init.recovery.htc_ocl.rc file under:

on property ro.crypto.state=encrypted
chmod 0660 /dev/qseecom
chown system drmrpc /dev/qseecom
chmod 0664 /dev/ion
chown system system /dev/ion

That way you don't need to change anything in upstream TWRP, just your device tree.
[HTC U11 Life Guides, News, & Discussion] twinnfamous:
i added that and tried again in recovery log it shows

init.svc.set_permissive=stopped . ive attached the logs . thanks for helping with this.
[HTC U11 Life Guides, News, & Discussion] nkk71:
Doesn't matter, perfectly normal.

Same error, permission denied on /dev/qseecom so the chmod and chown aren't being run properly.

Here, I've duplicated it for you, including how to manually chmod /dev/qseecom an /dev/ion, and get a successful decrypt: https://pastebin.com/XyxpNY73

I just chmod 666, but ideally you should fix the .rc file to properly set:

chmod 0660 /dev/qseecom
chown system drmrpc /dev/qseecom
chmod 0664 /dev/ion
chown system system /dev/ion

Can't really say why it's not working properly for you, or what may be interfering, changing them to something else, etc.

That's why I recommended you do it through an adb shell first.
[HTC U11 Life Guides, News, & Discussion] twinnfamous:
Thanks I will try when I get off work.

I'll be off 5 days should have plenty of time to get it squared away.
[HTC U11 Life Guides, News, & Discussion] twinnfamous:
i did it through adb shell and it worked so now i have to find out why it wont set the permissions rite . thanks again
[HTC U11 Life Guides, News, & Discussion] nkk71:
Congratulations :good:

We can only help so much, I'll leave the rest in your capable hands, and wish you a smooth journey.
[HTC U11 Life Guides, News, & Discussion] nkk71:
what does the adb shell say when you

"ls -l" them? what's the owner and group, and the permissions?

Also, I may have gotton this wrong, it should be:

on property:ro.crypto.state=encrypted
chmod 0660 /dev/qseecom
chown system drmrpc /dev/qseecom
chmod 0664 /dev/ion
chown system system /dev/ion

Note the semicolon after on property which i forgot earlier, though tbh the on fs *should* work
[HTC U11 Life Guides, News, & Discussion] twinnfamous:
it says

crw------- 1 root root 10, 94 Jun 2 03:33 /dev/ion

crw------- 1 root root 234, 0 Jun 2 03:33 /dev/qseecom

I'll try the suggestion when I get home shortly.

I've tried on fs and same thing. It's always setting perms the way I posted and I always am able to decrypt from command line. Thanks for everything you do to help here.

Which one do you think you have?
[HTC U11 Life Guides, News, & Discussion] Signor Rossi:
Either the first or the last, I would guess the first maybe.

But I'm not ready to try and error, as long as I can brick it. I just unpacked the device :D

Any chance I can get the boot.img without root ?
[HTC U11 Life Guides, News, & Discussion] twinnfamous:
I posted the last one in the root thread I got the unlatched boot.img on my computer at home. So it will be a while before I can upload it.

PS. U won't brick it by flashing a boot.img especially one with your same software number. Have u been unlocked your bootloader yet?

I need someone with that version phone to root and get the files I need so I can try to build Twrp for it.
[HTC U11 Life Guides, News, & Discussion] Signor Rossi:
Yes it's unlocked already.

I think you may already have it, but just in case

https://github.com/CaptainThrowback/android_kernel_htc_ocn/commits/master

HTC disables touch when in recovery mode, Captain_Throwback always renenables it when source is available. If source is not available he unpacks the stock kernel and replaces all instances of "recovery" to "rec0very" which works to enable touch, but breaks reboot to recovery.

Any updates

Is there a working TWRP for the HTC U11 life? I've just bought the phone and would love to flash a custom recovery image but am struggling to find a working one for this model. I have unlocked my bootloader but all the online custom recoveries don't work. I'm wondering if I've bought the wrong phone to be doing this with???

Have you checked the TWRP Thread, post 61 &62?
[Sony Xperia M] szatkus:
Hey,

I have C2005. I tried at least three different custom ROMs and outcome is always the same, phone stucks on boot animation.

I unlocked the booloader

I flashed the kernel

TWRP works fine

Fastboot works fine as well

The best thing: I can't flash the stock ftf file, Flashboot throws an exception every time. It worked at the beginning but stopped because of reasons.

I did billions of other things. Nothing worked.

Any ideas?
[X Style (Pure) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] gKimz:
Hello guys, my first thread here and Im new in the forum.

First of all, I'm sorry for bad English. I'm using google translator and I do not understand English very well.

Special thanks to users [MENTION=8667361]Danielo007[/MENTION] and [MENTION=5583599]FabioSan[/MENTION] for their respective topics (Daniel / FabioSan) that helped me to recover my smartphone.

My smartphone gave a brick when I performed an OTA security update, and when I plugged it into my pc I noticed that a device with the name "QHSUSB_BULK" appeared, different from what is necessary to follow Daniel's tutorial. "Qualcomm hs-usb qdloader 9008"

I found a way to turn "QHSUSB_BULK" into "Qualcomm hs-usb qdloader 9008", so I was able to follow Daniel's tutorial from start to finish. For this you will need the ROM available in the [MENTION=8667361]Danielo007[/MENTION]'s thread and Riff Box JTAG available in the [MENTION=5583599]FabioSan[/MENTION]'s thread.

After downloading the ROM and Riff box, extract each one into a separate folder.

Connect your smartphone to your pc and wait for the device "QHSUSB_BULK" to appear in your device manager.

Press the Win + R keys and enter the command "gpedit.msc", will open the local group policy editor. Navigate through the folders:

Administrative Templates> System> Device Installation

Enter the Device Installation Restrictions folder. In it you will need to make two changes. Double-click the first file (Allow administrators to override policies ...) and enable it. Do the same in the last file (Prevent installation of devices not described ...)

Now go to: Start Menu> Settings> Update and Security> Recovery. In"Advanced Boot", click Restart Now.

On this blue screen, click: Troubleshooting> Advanced Options> Startup Settings> Restart. On the next screen that appears press 7 or F7 to disable the signing of drivers and restart the pc.

Open the Device Manager, now the "QHSUSB_BULK" will probably be as unknown device. Hold the Power button on your smartphone until you hear it connect to your PC. Now it's called QHSUSB_BULK again. Right click on it and go to update device> browse for drivers on the computer, navigate to the folder extracted from the Riff Box and select the 64Bit folder (or 32Bit depending on your OS), OK and go ahead. A Windows security popup will appear, select to install anyway and wait.

Ok, your "QHSUSB_BULK" is now "Qualcomm hs-usb qdloader 9008"

From here you follow the tutorial @ Danielo007.

I hope this helps those who have the "QHSUSB_BULK" brick.

[Google Pixel 2 XL Questions & Answers] StelardActek:
Impatient as always, I decided to have a look at manually installing the latest OTA on my device.

I noticed that the build that matches my device is 8.0.0 (OPD1.170816.011, Sep 2017, Telstra), Telstra being the local big telco. I presume the fact they have a special build means:

I can't just update to 8.0.0 (OPD1.170816.025, Nov 2017) by downloading that OTA.

Even if it's possible to do a full wipe factory flash to a non-Telstra build, I would lose some functionality/compatibility in the process (probably VoLTE).

Am I correct in these assumptions?
