[solved]

I solved it this way: i downloaded the patched OST from here: https://xdaforums.com/nokia-6/development/nokia-6-official-firmware-mena-region-t3664441.

The ZIP of canaop92 did not work for my phone (see EDIT), but gave me a nb0 file for the following

I clicked "edit Device Information" in OST, DO NOT CLICK ON 'NEXT' after that

This installs a functional fastboot onto the device.

The method of canapo92 did not work, explained in my EDIT. So I had to improvise: I downloaded (after an hour of searching for that) a full firmware of the Nokia 6 TA-1021 and mirrored it:

https://drive.google.com/file/d/1kCKSid5Bf89yA3DyX8Y2gAZHq4VK6_p6/view?usp=sharing

https://1drv.ms/u/s!Agmh3wcexsuyjWysvmeASmEW66ah

https://nextcloud.hobbyist-overclock.de/index.php/s/RX7SxFQcLF7Pj9B

(download one of the mirrors)

Then I 'fastboot flash'ed the following .img files to the device: boot, cache, cda, hidden, mdtp, misc, persist, recovery, splash, system and userdata

That was it - everything working again

Thanks canapo92 for the Help and the original download link :)

EDIT: the flash without edit phone information did not work, my phone rebooted itself into recovery... weird... so i experimented. I tried to repeat the process with Android working again and now it wiorks
[Nokia 6 Questions & Answers] wachiwachi:
I followed all your steps, I flashed all the .img on my phone and at the end all the OTAs were downloaded until December, but still showing the model TA-1025, not a TA-1021 like I wanted. I've also done a hard reset, but nothing has changed.
[Nokia 6 Questions & Answers] sltushar:
Look buddy, when you bought your, at that time if your phone showed up TA-1025 then after flashing it will show you 1025, if it was TA-1021 then it will show you 1021.

You dont have to check the build.prop file, as every nokia 6 TA-1021 shows TA-1025 into its build.prop file

Flash your phone with MENA firmware, it will flash your phone to 1021 or 1025 with june security patch update

Then apply all updates till December

Everything you can find from here https://xdaforums.com/nokia-6/how-to/guide-oreo-follow-steps-t3723776

Follow all the steps care fully

If you want to update to oreo then

Sign up with beta labs from here https://www.nokia.com/en_int/phones/betalabs

And check if your phone gets the oreo update or not

If not then follow this thread for manually update to oreo https://xdaforums.com/nokia-6/how-to/guide-oreo-follow-steps-t3723776

Remember OTA will require wifi connection to get into your phone

Also be calm and read every step carefully, this will take you to least chance to get stuck into any problems.

Happy flashing :o
[Nokia 6 Questions & Answers] wachiwachi:
Thanks mate, but I have not explained myself well. My phone is a original TA-1000. I have flashed it following the thread of the MENA firmware and then it shows that it is a TA-1025, up to there everything is correct because he only downloads all the OTAs until December, 7.1.2 included. The fact is that I wanted to flash it to TA-1021 to see if I can solve the problem of the horrible sound in calls and that's why I tried to flash this ROM of TA-1021.
[Nokia 6 Questions & Answers] sltushar:
Then i would like to tell you that, there is no firmware which is made for TA-1021, the varient varries from region to region

If you phone 1021 then it wont change to 1025 and if it 1025 then it wont change to 1021, may be it is the reason that you get device name as unknown right

The mena firmware is an international varient...

Well i would like to suggest you, that if you want the features then u might go with mena firmware and if you want to fix these then i would suggest you flash back the chinese varient and wait for developers to develop a good custom rom for all users...

Till stay relaxed, and if i will get any fix for it then i would surely share those methods..

If someone can help me because i'm so scary :crying::crying:
[Nokia 6 Questions & Answers] ZeroPointMax:
Okay, your friend told me that you have gained recovery access again. Please do not worry, we can rescue your phone.

First, you have to do Step 1 and 2 of this guide: https://xdaforums.com/nokia-6/how-to/guide-upgrade-downgrade-nougat-oreo-t3752393 but you have to use a firmware file that matches your first letters of your phone's serial number (codename) like PLE or D1C. Using the firmware from other phones can cause unexpected issues but it should boot. Reboot you phone, it won't boot there but that is normal. Apply the OST BL patch again and then you can proceed with 'fastboot flash'-ing the full Nougat firmware or try the homebrew firmware from [MENTION=7601808]hikari_calyx[/MENTION]

Windows Mobile trojan sends unauthorized information and leaves device vulnerable

Tuesday February 26, 2008 at 1:13 am CST

Posted by Jimmy Shah

Trackback

A Window Mobile PocketPC trojan that disables Windows Mobile application installation security has been discovered in China.

WinCE/InfoJack sends the infected device’s serial number, operating system and other information to the author of the trojan. It also leaves the infected mobile device vulnerable by allowing silent installation of malware. The trojan modifies the infected device’s security setting to allow unsigned applications to be installed without a warning.

The trojan was packed inside a number of legitimate installation files and distributed widely. It has been distributed with Google Maps, applications for stock trading, and a collection of games.

Figure 1

The trojan is installed with a collection of legitimate games.

WinCE/InfoJack was created by a specific website. The website may have hired someone to create the trojan and distribute it to other sites. The maintainer of the website claims that the software was just necessary to collect information on the types of mobiles used to access their site. That would be easier to believe if they had notified the user prior to installation or if they had provided some sort of uninstallation method.

Figure 2

WinCE/InfoJack installs silently along with other applications.

WinCE/InfoJack has a number of features that show its malicious intent:

* installing as an autorun program on the memory card

* installing itself to the phone when an infected memory card is inserted

* protecting itself from deletion, copying itself back to disk

* replaces the browser’s home page

* allows unsigned applications to install without warning

Figure 2 Figure 2

WinCE/InfoJack installs as an autorun program on the memory card.

That last feature, allowing silent installation of an unsigned app, is used by WinCE/InfoJack to auto update itself. It also leaves the mobile open to other malware being installed silently. Fortunately the trojan’s website is no longer reachable, due in part to an investigation by local law enforcement.

[ZTE Axon 7 Questions & Answers] TekHead2:
Hello everyone, I recently decided to root my Axon 7 and try some custom roms, I couldn't get any of the roms to completely boot so I went back to stock. After doing so I have no imei/unknown baseband. The issue I'm more concerned with though is my audio skipping, even when I'm not playing anything I still notice a stutter in the system and witness the higher clocked cores of the 820 jumping to 100% utilization. It happens almost like clockwork and I'm pulling my hair out trying to diagnose it.
[ZTE Axon 7 Questions & Answers] Choose an username...:
First let's diagnose the custom ROM thing. They don't boot because you're doing something horribly wrong there m8.

To install a custom ROM you need 5 files:

-Universal Bootloader

-Corresponding modem file

-The actual ROM

-SuperSU or Magisk, to disable dm-verity

-TWRP 3.2.1-0.img (Have it installed AND ALSO on the phone (internal or SD card, same).

So, you wipe data, caches and system, flash the Universal Bootloader, then the TWRP.img, then modem, ROM, and Magisk. If you forget about flashing the modem file you'll lose signal.

Second error: Lost your IMEI

What did you do to go back to stock? What files did you use? And most importantly, what's your phone's model? If you flashed an A2017G package on an A2017 it is possible that you'll lose your IMEI. There are ways to rewrite it though, but I don't know any/they are illegal and stuff.

To fix the stuttering I recommend that you download MiFlash, a corresponding update package for your device model, and flash it via edl. The IMEI is screwed but you probably still have the phone's box with the stickers.
[ZTE Axon 7 Questions & Answers] TekHead2:
I used miflash to revert to stock, using the b19 file from the toolkit for the phone, then did all the OTA updates and it's still there

As for the roms, I flashed all the files properly but it kept freezing on the boot logo so I gave up
[ZTE Axon 7 Questions & Answers] Choose an username...:
But what model is it? Etched on the back, of course, not the original software model
[ZTE Axon 7 Questions & Answers] TekHead2:
A2017U

I made sure I had all the right files,
[ZTE Axon 7 Questions & Answers] TekHead2:
Okay so I've made some progress, I discovered that my definitely US model phone is allergic to something about the US modem file. I was trying out the 8.0.0 edl rom which has the Chinese modem included and I noticed that all my problems were fixed, but it just wouldn't connect to the network (duh), I went back to stock and the issues were back until I flashed a Chinese modem from a post I'll reference once I'm back at my pc. If it's possible to make said modem capable of connecting to Verizon it would be amazing.
[ZTE Axon 7 Questions & Answers] RobboW:
Not saying this is related but I've seen that with phones using combination low and high power cores, sometimes it switches down to low power even with music playing and maybe gets buffer issues or a stutter switching back up to the big cores. My Mate 7 did this. Didn't have the performance of the Axon 7 which is usually more stable in this regard.

You could have a governor issue or storage read performance problem.

[Google Pixel XL Questions & Answers] vestaviajag:
I'm so confused with this phone. Google sent me a 128gb Pixel XL which I activated on my Sprint account. I'm fairly comfortable with rooting, flashing, TWRP, SuperSU, etc., however for the life of me I cannot get TWRP to stick.

Background...

Phone came to me straight from Google, and updated to 8.0 immediately (this was in August). Since, the phone doesn't appear to have been updated as I was still on 8.0 from August I believe

Here's what I did...

Unlocked the phone, using TWRP image, boot to it via fastboot, flash the installer TWRP zip, and then issues happen.

On 3.2.1.0-0 it reboots to system (even if I go back into TWRP's main setting and Reboot Recovery). If I use 3.2.0.0-0, it gives me an ERROR 1 code. I've tried using systemless root method (with the modified TWRP img, Aroma Installer for SU, etc.). I've tried using the 2 most recent TWRP images from their website. I initially started with this guide ([GUIDE] Pixel XL Android 8(OREO) Unlock/Install Stock Images + Kernels/Recovery +). I then tried this method using Systemless root ([Guide] How to systemlessly root your Pixel XL on Android 8.0 (SuperSU)).

I even tried flashing the OTA manually, which caused other issues, mainly bootloops. I finally got the most recent 8.0 OTA to work after multiple errors (which appear to be caused by outdated platform_tools). When trying to flash the OTA, only OPR1 would flash, OPR3 would always just hang or throw errors (sorry, no changelog, which I know is not helpful). Am I not correct that OPR3 is what is needed for a Sprint (US carriers) based phone? Regardless, everything is up, and running now in 8.0, however I can't take the OTA (it fails when trying to download), and I still can't get TWRP to stick.

Is there anything obvious I'm missing? I can boot to TWRP, but can't flash it, regardless of what I do. I've searched and most issues I've found in getting TWRP to stick either has to do with flashing the boot.img from an OTA or using 3.2.1.0 instead of 3.2.2.0. Funny thing, I don't see the 3.2.2.0 img file, just the flashable zip. Someone please help me, even if it is to tell me I'm in over my head and should stick to a stock rom.
[Google Pixel XL Questions & Answers] TonikJDK:
I think you should simplify your life.

Each month grab the full image. Edit the flash-all bat file and remove the -w you will see near the end. Reboot the phone into fastboot mode and run the flash-all bat file.

That will update your phone, but leave settings a data in tact. Again, remove the -w so you don't wipe user data.

Then boot to TWRP and root it. Skip installing TWRP, too many hassles on this phone.

FYI, on the January update SuperSU no longer works, you will need to root with Magisk.

I do it each month this way. It takes 15 minutes and I have zero problems.
[Google Pixel XL Questions & Answers] Chance Ill:
To make your life even more simplicit, you can use Skipsoft Toolkit. Its automated and does all the heavy lifting for you. I have TWRP install without any issue.
[Google Pixel XL Questions & Answers] vestaviajag:
So you're saying grab the Full OTA? Should I start with the last month before the version I'm on? Currently on OPR1.170623.023 (Nov 2017). Does it make a difference that I'm a Sprint service, as in using OPR1 vs OPR3?

So fastboot into TWRP img everytime I want to flash a custom ROM?

January update of SuperSU or the OTA? I was under the impression Magisk couldn't be flashed on stock kernels, I'm guessing this changed?

I will try this. Between yours and Tonik's advice, one of these is bound to work, right?

I use the full image, after taking out the -w from this link. Since you are flashing the whole image you can just get the latest.

https://developers.google.com/android/images

I can't help you on ROMs, I don't do them. Are there any 8 ROMs for this phone?

But I would never flash anything on this phone without being near a computer. So I skip flashing TWRP. Just as easy to fastboot it.

SU is not being updated any more. So I mean the Google January update breaks SU. I have been using Magisk on stock for several months now. If you want to stick with SU you will need to flash December Google.

SU beta thread, Chainfire announced he is no longer involved at all. He stopped by a few days ago, got rather upset at some of the posts. We have not heard a word from the new owners in two years.....

Oh ok. I do remember coming across Chainfire's announcement awhile ago but was unaware that the new owners hadn't been active with the community. That's disappointing to say the least.
[Google Pixel XL Questions & Answers] vestaviajag:
Tried this, for some reason wouldn't work. Tried the TWRP and it wouldn't due to OpenSourceScript or something. Then tried rooting and installing busybox, it wouldn't do this either. It attempted to flash it to sd card, another place, and finally in the right storage for this device, and it wouldn't for some error. No specifics on the error were given.

Tried this next, removed the -w, and used flash-all in fastboot. This worked, however after I upgraded to 8.1 OPM1, I left it alone. Will try again tonight to root, and attempt flashing magisk for the first time.

Thanks for all the advice!
