[Honor 6X Questions & Answers] Sreekantt:
Don't u have any old TWRP backup which consists of OEM info, vendor, product, boot ???

If not, i think you have to use Huawei update extractor on US firmware

Twrp backup would have made the process easy and reliable
[Honor 6X Questions & Answers] Dazed No More:
There is something very screwed up with the OTA updates for this model phone right now. Consider yourself lucky that your phone still works, I'm dealing with a BLN-L24 that is more than likely unrecoverable all due to some wierd firmware that the official updater installed on the phone on Christmas Eve. Its like the servers are sending bad firmware that isn't for this model but the phone accepts it since it's OTA.

If you haven't read it yet please check out my thread and tell me if you are experiencing anything similar since your OTA. Check out the 3rd post too.

https://xdaforums.com/honor-6x/help/bln-l24-stuck-device-booting-rollback-t3725319

I forgot to mention in my post that overall the phone ran extremely sluggish for a fresh update even though I have no idea what firmware was on the phone. All I know is it was completely foreign to me in all aspects....it was just very wierd overall and in pretty sure you know exactly what I mean since you said it was different.

As for uncertified in play store, try clearing app data for play store and see if it changes to certified.
[Honor 6X Questions & Answers] BakedOnSomeSour:

[Honor 6X Questions & Answers] BakedOnSomeSour:
I flashed the vendor, boot, recovery, and system images with fastboot and then installed the update through erecovery. First i flashed update.zip. Then i flashed update_data_full_BLN-L24_hw_usa. Im still missing all of the USA features. I know all of the apks are in the update_data_full_BLN-L24_hw_usa folder but they arent being put on the system. Is there something i could be missing? Also the install time for update_data_full_BLN-L24_hw_usa is rather short for its size. Is it just being skipped?
[Honor 6X Questions & Answers] Sreekantt:
Just to confirm we r on the same lines

U just mentioned that u flashed update.zip

Did u mean 'install it via dload method' .....If installing via dload method...u need to extract update.zip and place the contents in dload folder of sd card.

If u r doing the same....what are the exact apps and features which are missing ?
[Honor 6X Questions & Answers] BakedOnSomeSour:
Yes by flash i mean using the dload method. I extracted the content of the update.zip and put it in the dload folder on the sd card. After that i put the files from update_data_full_BLN-L24_hw_usa folder into dload and run the update. When the phone boots i am taken to a rather boring stock setup without any bloat apps. Its missing default wallpapers and themes. The play store fails to detect that the preinstalled apps need updates. Its almost like a completely different phone. A completely different broken phone. The apps below should be on the phone

UPDATe: Got an OTA and everything is back to normal. Thanks for the help

[Samsung Gear S3] coolhandz:
Had anybody figured it how to hide BusyBox from SPay so that we can still use it? I really want to install some custom profiles on my pixel, but SPay is more important. We can hide root, that i know, but not sure about BusyBox.
[Samsung Gear S3] jimbob_sf:
I've been searching for how to trick Pay as well. It's detecting root. I'm running a HTC U11 with LeeDroid Oreo rom and Magisk 15. Every Sammy app is Magisk Hidden and the magisk app has been renamed. It passes safely net. Busybox is fully masked from any app, so I'm not sure what the hangup is. I did a search but only found lots of notes about the csc (not an issue in the US?).

I'll do the reading if there is a search string I'm missing. Thanks!
[Samsung Gear S3] coolhandz:
Reading a thread where it says to try and hide root/BusyBox from any other app the targeted one calls on. For example: hide from camera since SPay has permission to use the camera.

https://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=73145987&postcount=4

Would you be up for trying any of these solutions and posting your findings?
[Samsung Gear S3] arjuna_:
Yeah this is a big issue I'm facing as well and I'm really curious as to why certain ROMs have no issues and others are seemingly impervious to the methods used to hide root from SPay.

If anyone has any insight into how to get this to work please share so that we can all benefit.
[Samsung Gear S3] jimbob_sf:
I'm us a US Unlocked HTC U11 with LeeDroid's rom. Release R114 now works with SPay. Remnants of Busybox were in a key path and all kinds of apps weren't working (SPay, WeMo...). With this release, Magisk hide allows SPay to work just fine without any crazy tricks. I hope this helps someone.

I don't know if there's an app that will search any rom for busybox, but it would certainly help those of us with a Sammy watch.
[Samsung Gear S3] slaydog:
What are you using Busy Box for, out of curiosity..?
[Samsung Gear S3] coolhandz:
Some Aroma mods use BusyBox and so do some versions of V4A. Xposed uses it too.

Edit: currently using Magisk w/ BusyBox installed on BenzoRom and SPay still works.
[General Questions and Answers] onefish:
Hi, this seems like a stupid question but I can't make sense of it..... old age! I have use a third party email app (on phones and tablets) for the last decade or so but it is antiquated and there are some things I really don't like. I thought I'd give Google's gMail app a try with a new tablet and I really like it except for 1x fatal flaw (dealbreaker), it forces conversation view for all gMail based accounts. I hate conversation view and regularly miss correspondence when it's on. There's a box in settings to turn it off but it does nothing if your email server is gMail.

I have read that it is possible to setup the gMail app to use IMAP to access my gMail server but I can't see any setting to do it. I am familiar with IMAP settings, etc. but the gMail app appears to just grab my Google credentials and automatically access my gMail account. Do I have to delete my entire Google account (not just account in gMail app) and then recreate it in order to set it up as IMAP?

[Magisk] thany2:
I've let the MagiskManager upgrade Magisk from 14.x to 1.50. Then I rebooted the phone, and then it was stuck at the pulsating SAMSUNG logo.

So, next step would be obvious: get into TWRP and install Magisk 14.0.

And so I did, and so it failed. This time I got a bootloop. The "Galaxy S7 powered by Android" thing appears for a few seconds, and then vibrates and starts over. And over, and over, and over.

So then, I "installed" the Magisk Uninstaller. Thinking to get rid of all traces of Magisk that introduced this problem in the first place.

So I did, and now I'm back at the first problem: stuck at booting.

Then installing Magisk 14 AND wiping cache&dalvik: boot loop

Then I installed the uninstaller again, then Magisk 15, and wipe the cache&dalvik. And it's back at being stuck while booting again.

Brilliant. What do I do to fix this?
[Magisk] nicegamer7:
Are you using a custom ROM, or a port ROM, or a custom kernel?
[Magisk] thany2:
It's all stock, except for it being rooted.
[Magisk] elindred:
I'm having the same issue. Canadian S7 W8, Stock ROM with root, Magisk 14, upgraded to 15 using direct install through magisk manager.
[Magisk] thany2:
Yes, exactly that. No offense, but that's helping neither yourself nor me nor anyone else. Have you been able to figure anything out?

Maybe how to produce some kind of log output?...
[Magisk] fattyspecial:
Same thing happened to me just now. Never would have thought that upgrading through the Magisk app would cause this. I've tried all of the above and have also tried installing v 12.0 but still no dice.

I even tried a factory reset and still no dice. This is seriously infuriating.

Guess I will have to reflash everything and start fresh. If anyone else has any other ideas I'm all ears.
[Magisk] thany2:
I'd like to know what the phone is actually *doing* when it's stuck. How can we get to know this?

`fastboot logcat` and `adb logcat` both keep waiting for a device that will not connect. Something does connect, christ knows what, but certainly no adb or fastboot device.

[MENTION=4842864]fattyspecial[/MENTION]

"reflash everything and start fresh" can you explain what exactly this comprises? What should I do?
[Magisk] mtbsoft.:
Mate 8 running 7.0 stock except rooted, running Magisk 14, did the same thing and I'm in the same boat. Have also tried removing magisk, reinstalling 14 no dice. Have not factory reset yet (trying everything else before that step) but it looks like it won't help.
[Magisk] fattyspecial:
Completely reflash the entire stock rom with ODIN and then re-root and reconfigure my entire phone. About the biggest bother imaginable.

I'm trying to re-flash only a new boot.img (or new kernel) through twrp right now. If I can get that to work I'll let you know right away.

---------- Post added at 03:10 AM ---------- Previous post was at 02:29 AM ----------

FIXED IT!

Ok here's what I did. Maybe not a perfect solution but I am out of bootloop and phone is working and root is working too.

I had to install a custom kernel. I'm guessing this replaces the corrupted boot.img file. So you will need to be rooted and have a custom recovery like TWRP.

Go to https://xdaforums.com/galaxy-s7/development/kernel-tgpkernel-t3462897 and scroll down to the part that says: DOWNLOAD VIA ANDROIDFILEHOST for N version and download the zip file.

Transfer the TGPKernel zip to your external SD card (either with android file transfer if on mac like me or with an SD card reader).

Flash the zip in TWRP.

It will take a LONG time to reboot. Don't worry.

I chose to install root with Magisk and it ended up updating it to v15.0 and so far everything seems to be working well.

Hope this helps. That took a long time to figure out. Time for bed.
[Magisk] ct1aic:
Ok, I'm still not in that loop... yet.

Ok, I'm still not in that loop... yet.

I selected installing the 15.0 Magisk zip file (from 14.0) using direct install, then did the reboot and I'm stuck at the pulsating SAMSUNG logo.

Can I do the same fix of fattyspecial without loosing anything on the S7?

I did the exact Magisk 15.0 zip update on my LG Nexus 5, with no problem, in less than a minute.
[Magisk] ct1aic:
I'm still not in that loop... yet.

Ok, I tried that soluction and it worked. I didn't loose anything and I have now Magisk 15.0 installed and still rooted/SafetyNet OK

[MENTION=4842864]fattyspecial[/MENTION]

I don't see why installing a custom kernel is a viable fix. Or a good idea. It seems random.

Maybe you can explain why this is a fix, and how the stock kernel makes the phone bootloop?

[MENTION=1256290]Tribal123[/MENTION]

I think you will find I've already tried it. I appreciate your contribution, but please do read my topic start.
[Magisk] ScouserCL:
Same here, updated from v14 to v15 and got a nice bootloop.

Huawei Mate 8 with Nougat (stock) and TWRP.

EDIT:

Solved!

Flashed my stock boot.img backup through TWRP, then booted my phone and downloaded v14, flashed v14 through TWRP, booted my phone again and downloaded v15 with Magisk Manager app and checked "Preserve AVB 2.0/dm-verity" and then tapped "Install" using "Direct Install (recommended)"
[Magisk] Didgeridoohan:
Because a custom kernel disables dm-verity. There's an issue, mainly on Samsung devices, with the dm-verity detection in Magisk v15.0. It's under investigation...

Meanwhile, flash a dm-verity disabler together with Magisk v15.0 and you should be good to go.
[Magisk] nicegamer7:
I'm fairly certain you need a custom kernel. I'm also on the S7 and without one I've always boot looped, I think it has to do with dm-verity.

EDIT: I didn't notice there was a second page so I guess I didn't really say anything new, oh well, sorry!
[Magisk] fattyspecial:
Awesome! Glad it worked. Happy new year.

Hey man. I'm just telling you what worked for me. If you don't want to try it then don't.
[Magisk] darki00:
Hello,

Here is the problem I personnaly had (solved now !) :

Initially, my wife had a G930F (samsung galaxy S7) and a Custom 7.0 rom (i think it was the "AlexNDR.G930FXXU2DRAG" rom...but I'm not sure at all because it was installed several months ago or even years) with TWRP as recovery and Magisk as root.

I saw that Magisk not working (since when ? I don't know because it was not my phone). So, I tried to update it via the Magisk application (the initial goal was to use then Titanium Backup).

Logically, the phone then rebooted to install the Magisk update... except that a Boot Loop appeared.

I then tried many things :

1° Downgrade or Upgrade the TWRP recovery to 3.0.0.0; to 3.2.2.0 and to 3.5.2.9.0 (thes recovery .img files are here: https://eu.dl.twrp.me/herolte/)

=> It didn't work, and the bootloop continued (but, at the end, i keep the TWRP v.3.5.2.9.0)

2° I tried to uninstall and reinstall Magisk

(cf. the "Custom Recovery" tuto here : https://topjohnwu.github.io/Magisk/install.html#samsung-system-as-root)

=> Failure. Still the BootLoop... (either with the .zip v19.1 or the .zip v23)

nb: I even tried to donwload other magisk files but still the same bootloop (cf.https://xdaforums.com/t/collection-of-magisk-modules-v2.3575758/page-13#post-72542167)

4° I tried to change the kernel by using TGPKernel (https://xdaforums.com/t/kernel-g93xx-tw6-7-8-2019-12-30-tgpkernel-v6-15-5-3-18-140-esd2.3462897/)

=> Failure, the bootloop remained...

5° Finally, I found a solution :

a° I downloaded the rom "G930FXXU2DRAG_DevBase_v4.6.zip" (via the following tutorial here : https://xdaforums.com/t/rom-g930f-fd-alexndr-u8eue1-devbase-v7-4-encryption-support-jul-10.3592914/)

, more exactly at the following location : https://androidfilehost.com/?fid=818070582850489124

b° Then, as indicated in the tuto (https://xdaforums.com/t/rom-g930f-fd-alexndr-u8eue1-devbase-v7-4-encryption-support-jul-10.3592914/), I renamed the .zip downloaded on my PC to "G930FXXU2DRAG_DevBase_v4.6_rescue.zip" (ps: so, i add "..._rescue.zip)

c° After that, I copied the file "G930FXXU2DRAG_DevBase_v4.6_rescue.zip" on my micro SD.

d° In the recovery I finally installed the file "G930FXXU2DRAG_DevBase_v4.6_rescue.zip" and the phone restarted after a long time (or maybe 5 minutes, I didn't watch).

=> End of the bootloop and all data was preserved!!! :)

[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S8 Questions & Answers] anderd:
Might possibly have to be on stock sprint, but if you had them unlock it, they issue a update to the phone, or at least thats how my s5 and s6 was done, and that was only for international not a US carrier unlock. It did take a few days before it was issued to the devices i had so give it another day or so and if its done done, then i'd contact sprint again and ask them to re-send it to your phone.

Keep in mind if its a international unlock, you still wont be able to use any other carriers sim domestically in the USA on the device as it will remain locked to sprint Again it took 2-3 days before my devices received the unlock from sprint.

If you flash the eng boot/unlock files i can unlock it remotely if sprint doesnt come through for you
