[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] EmoGuyz:
Okay guys , I'm new to this forum and I hope that there is someone who can help me , thanks .

I recently bought a Mi A1 and I would like to flash it into MiUi Rom ( I like MiUi so much but my country doesn't sell Mi 5X ) .

What had I done is :

1 ) I unlocked Mi A1's bootloader using fastboot command ( fastboot oem unlock ) .

2 ) I flash Mi 5X partition ( ONLY ONE Partitions ) , that I take it out from Mi 5X Fastboot China Stable Rom ( gpt_both0.bin ) and flash it into my Mi A1 using fastboot command .

3 ) Straight away , I flash the Mi 5X Rom into my Mi A1 using Mi Flash Tool ( I edited the flash-all.bat of Mi 5X Fastboot China Stable Rom so that it will recognize my phone as Mi 5X and enable me to flash it ) .

4 ) After that , my Mi A1 ( with Mi 5X Rom now ) was bootloop and stuck at Mi Logo ( usually we saw it when rebooting MiUi Rom ) .

What did I get after tidy up my mind :

1 ) After checking the log file of Mi Flash Tool , my Mi A1 is now recognize as Tiffany ( Mi 5X code name ) , not Tissot ( Mi A1 code name )

2 ) My bootloader now is locked .

3 ) I was unable to use ALL fastboot command since my bootloader is locked .

4 ) I tried to use Mi Unlock Tool to unlock my phone bootloader ( since my phone now is recognize as Tiffany ) , it stuck at 99% and stopped : Current account is not bound to this device .

5 ) Tried to flash the Rom through Recovery via Mi Suite PC Chinese Version , it didn't work for me .

6 ) Tried to flash Twrp into recovery mode , it didn't work for me .

7 ) Tried to get into EDL Mode via fastboot reboot-edl , it didn't work for me too .

What I haven't try yet :

1 ) DIY a Deep Flash Cable ( I can't do it since I did not have any knowledge on wiring and circuits )

2 ) Bought a Deep Flash Cable ( I asked someone and it seems like Deep Flash Cable doesn't work anymore for Mi Phones , Mi already block them )

3 ) Login somebody Mi Account which have bounded to Mi 5X and use his/her account to unlock my device ( I hope that there is someone who willing to borrow me his/her Mi Account to help me in unlock bootloader )

4 ) Send to Mi Service Center for repair ( I just bought my device few weeks ago , there is warranty on it . But I not sure that whether I can claim the warranty or not since I flash partition on the device )

Here is some images about my problems :

imgur.com/UL8GHoY -> fastboot getvar all

imgur.com/QM79cwq -> Can't boot recovery.img

imgur.com/8lEAIlT -> Can't unlock bootloader

imgur.com/sH91GxI -> Mi Unlock Tool Can't unlock bootloader

imgur.com/a/9BnUE -> Mi Flash Tool Logs

Is there anyone willing to help me to solve my problems ?

**Please give me some advice to fix my phone back .

** If possible , I would like to try Number 3 , I think it should work

** Sorry for my broken English

[Xiaomi Mi 5X ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other De] Aex12:
Important notice: This is an outdated modded recovery which only works with nougat. Use the newest one instead. It supports both Oreo and Nougat rom porting.

Modded TWRP 3.1.1-0 Download:

Google Drive

How to install:

- Unlock bootloader

- Enter in Fastboot Mode (Power Button + Vol Down)

- Flash using "fastboot flash recovery twrp.img"

Mod features:

- Automatic A1 Rom Porting

- Included Magisk 14.5 installer

- Included AROMA Filemanager

Where can I find the new features?

Go to Advanced menu and then tap on "Aex12 Toolbox". A new menu will open with the new 3 options (Port A1 Rom, Install Magisk, Aroma FM)

How does A1 automatic ROM porting works?

Install any Nougat A1 ROM directly on your 5X, but make sure you only install system.img and boot.img, if you flash other partitions you will probably face some errors. Then tap on "Port A1 Rom" button. Confirm that you want to make the port using the slider. Wait until it finishes. Reboot and enjoy.

How can I flash an A1 rom into the 5X?

If you downloaded an official rom, extract it somewhere, enter the directory and look for the "images" directory. Enter on it, open terminal on this directory and then execute this commands:

fastboot flash system system.img

fastboot flash boot boot.img

After it finishes, go to TWRP and use the "Port A1 Rom" button

Fingerprint is acting as a button after porting A1 rom

You need to flash A1 firmware to avoid some minor bugs like this.

Will it work with Oreo?

It does not work with Oreo at the moment. I'm working to make it work. As soon as I got it, I will add an automatic Oreo porting button.

Does this works with custom ROMs?

I didn't try, try it yourself and comment results :D

Where is the changelog?

I followed the exact procedure word to word on my Mi 5X (It has Nov update before)

After reboot to system the error showed telling "No Command" with no system to boot. Fortunately I had Nov Update so installed it in TWRP and got back to system. Detailed instructions will be appreciated.
[Xiaomi Mi 5X ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other De] Aex12:
Important notice

Updated modded recovery. Fixed some bugs in the Automatic Rom Porting feature. If you plan to use this feature, please, flash new img.

(New link is on main thread)

As said on the post, after you install it you need to boot into the modded twrp and tap on "A1 Rom Porting". If you dont do it, it wont work.
[Xiaomi Mi 5X ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other De] AncientLord:
Thanks for the tip. I missed that step. I followed the steps to the letter now and flashed system.img and boot.img from December ROM as indicated by the attached photo. But the mobile is still on November Patch level. Done that twice to no effect.
[Xiaomi Mi 5X ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other De] Aex12:
Phone is updated, but version displayed on settings is wrong. It's an known bug. Flash fixed recovery and tap on "A1 Rom Porting" again. You don't need to flash system.img and boot.img again.

Are you on a Mi 5X and installing Mi A1 rom? It should flash well as both phones have same system partition size. For me it worked.
[Xiaomi Mi 5X ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other De] gurex:
Yes. I have a mi5x and downloaded the A1 ROM and tried installing it using the instructions in the first post. I tried downloading newer fastboot version but the same error occurres.

I guess that it is the phone that is the problem as fastboot reports; "target reported max download size of 536870912 bytes"

Can I change this size limit?

[Xiaomi Mi 5X ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other De] Aex12:
Max download size is not the problem. Mine is also the same. Fastboot will just divide system.img in chunks of 500mb approximately each of. Try downloading newer fastboot binary.

There was one that wasn't free I think that let you search from different places like, images, google, wiki dynamically.

[Huawei Mate 10  Questions & Answers] kolembo:
Usually the weeks after the launch of a phone especially one that was so anticipated the boards are absolutely full of user feedback.

It feels strangely dead here.

I held back on a purchase just to hear what people were thinking - particularly about the standard Mate 10 but there's very little happening.

Even on Google there is very little information on the Mate 10 (a lot on the pro) and very little user follow-up/long term reviews.

It's slightly un-nerving.

So ARE people buying this phone (the pro at least because of the availability)? Are you liking it? What's the experience been like? What DON'T you like......
[Huawei Mate 10  Questions & Answers] daz_2000:
Pros

Battery life. Good speed. I have to stress the battery life. The best I've ever had on a phone. EVER. Over 7 hrs SOT. Easily lasts 2 days.

Cons

WiFi is unacceptable. I constantly have to switch to 4g.

Camera for me is not good enough.

A little buggy at times. Couple of random reboots, one or two other minor weird stuff.

I brought this phone whilst my HTC u11+ gets repaired. I thought I may stick with the Huawei, however due to the cons I think I'll go back to the HTC u11+ (a better overall phone for me)

Hope that helps
[Huawei Mate 10  Questions & Answers] rogerinnyc:
I've only had the Mate 10 for about a week, and it's growing on me. As posted above, the battery life is SUPERB. 7+ hours of SOT, close to 2 days standby. Fast charging (which requires Huawei's proprietary charger and a 5 amp type C cable) is also amazing. As is the speed and accuracy of the front fingerprint reader (and it's great that it can be tapped, long-tapped and swiped).

I think the screen, camera and speed are all excellent and, having originally thought about returning it (I was coming from a Note 4), I think it's now a keeper, although, like the OP, I'm surprised at how quiet the community has been.

Some cons: I hate the volume buttons placement, on the right side just above power. It's a pain since I like to use them for reading and cursor control, and I'm used to doing that with my thumb on the left side. I also am disappointed that there's not TWRP yet, as I'm used to GMD Gesture Control and Titanium, although I'm finding relatively decent substitutes.

Other pros: 3.0 type C charger, great sound, IR blaster, SD Card, dual-sim, comes with a usable case (the phone is otherwise slippery).
[Huawei Mate 10  Questions & Answers] Sammae7:
I purchased the regular Mate 10, AL00 rebranded to L29, so it has 6 gigs of ram/128 gigs of storage. I believe I'm having some buyers remorse. It's just not a big enough upgrade from the Mate 9. As a matter of fact, I still often pick up and play around with my Mate 9. I've only had the 10 for about 4 days and am debating on selling it, probably at a $100/$150 loss.

Two aspects I was excited for, the updated screen and offscreen button, both have issues for me. The screen isn't nearly as bright as the Mate 9 which makes it look a little duller, but is much sharper. There is also an adaptive brightness issue which causes certain screens and apps to dim and cannot be toggled off. The fingerprint sensor is still super fast but using it as the offscreen buttons can be problematic for those with larger fingers. It's so small and very close to the app drawer button, provided you use one as I do.

The added thickness is also quite noticeable to me. Despite being taller and wider, the Mate 9 seems more comfortable in my hands.
[Huawei Mate 10  Questions & Answers] lowphas:
My s7 edge has the buttons on the different side, and my P10 plus has it on the same side but with a different texture on the power button instead. I have the Mate 10 pro since it's availability, but I sometimes still push the wrong button. It is not a deal breaker, just something to note.
[Huawei Mate 10  Questions & Answers] jdfjunk:
i might consider checking it out if you are selling.
