[Xiaomi Mi A1 Questions & Answers] lolo1410:
Hello,

I have a Mi A1 since one week and I have already a large problem.

The problem began with a basic crash on an app (Facebook). The phone didn't respond and I turned off the phone.

When I turned on, the phone was stuck on the boot image (White screen with Mi Logo and Google colors). I tried to turn off and on several times but it didn't work.

I opened the phone and disconnected the battery but always the same problem.

Then, I booted the phone in fastboot and unlocked it via the command fastboot oem unlock. Then I tried to flash the stock ROM via fastboot. I choosed this version : Android 7.1.2 Nougat (N2G47H.7.12.7) because I had the last update (from : https://xiaomifirmware.com/roms/download-official-roms-xiaomi-mi-a1/).

Immediately i have this error :

fastboot flash modem_a C:\Users\Lau\Desktop\tissot_images_7.12.7_7.1\images\modem.img ||
target reported max download size of 536870912 bytes
sending 'modem_a' (86016 KB)...
OKAY [ 2.466s]
writing 'modem_a'...
FAILED (remote: flash write failure)
finished. total time: 2.499s
"Flash modem_a error"

I tried to flash with Miflash tool 2017.7.20 but I have the same message, Flash modem_a error.

I also tried to boot the phone in EDL Mode with fastboot_edl, the phone reboot, I have a message your device software cannot be checked for corruption and then the boot screen (with the messsage "Unlocked") and after 30 seconds, I have the black screen with the droid and "No command" (https://scache.vzw.com/kb/images/google/pixel/android_system_recovery_no_command.jpg )

Someone should have an idea to restore the phone ?!

Thanks a lot !
[Xiaomi Mi A1 Questions & Answers] XDVRMX:
That screen with "No command" is usually related to the recovery. If I remember well, once in that screen, you have to press and hold power button for few seconds then press and release volume up button to enter in recovery. By reading your post I can see you didn't even try the most easy thing: A factory Reset! Try to wipe data from recovery if you can enter in it.

The modem error could be related at the fact that you're flashing a firmware that is not global or for your country. Try to change firmware version and make sure it is the right firmware region.

Thank for the quick answer.

I thinked to the recovery but I didn't know how to acces. With your help, I found and I made a wipe data. It made 5 minutes I have the message Formatting /data.... It seems too long... :/

EDIT : I stopped the wiping, it's seems it was block.

When you spoke of an other firmware, do have you a link ? Here is the information of my phone

[Xiaomi Mi A1 Questions & Answers] XDVRMX:
This is a link to the October release of the Rom

https://androidfilehost.com/?fid=745849072291684522

This is a guide of how to flash it with Mi Flash Tool

https://xdaforums.com/mi-a1/how-to/rom-factory-images-t3688548

If you are not able to flash with Mi Flash tool, try this guide to Flash manually via fastboot.

Once in fastboot (i suggest you to use the official one included in Android SDK becouse are the most updated ones and don't use some other installer like minimal. Add installer for Windows) follow this guide to Flash firmware images manually. It's for nexuses but the fastboot commands are universal

I tried to flash manually the ROM with fastboot and I found a clue, the filesystem seems not normal...

You must flash to system_a or system_b, "system" partition really doesn't exist.

Indeed, it's work now, it's flashing !

I noticed that for TWRP, there is also a "slot A" and "slot B". Is it new in Android ? Is there 2 kind of system ?

Yes I can boot into but I can't install it. Before I tried to flash manually, I was able to unlock the data partition but not anymore (Error : E: Decrypt took too long, killing process - Failed to decrypt data)

[Xiaomi Mi A1 Questions & Answers] _mysiak_:
Some people had luck with flashing persist.img from August update, you might try that as well. There is also a chance that your flash memory is damaged and you will need to visit a service center.
[Xiaomi Mi A1 Questions & Answers] zeyaan:
Okay try this.

Download the latest build (android n) from mi firmwares official page.

Unzip the file (http://en.miui.com/forum.php?mod=viewthread&tid=1415168&extra=page=1&mobile=2)

Download miflashtool (http://en.miui.com/thread-807252-1-1.html)- guide & tool.

Past the path in the tool.

Click refresh

Click flash

Boom your good.

Make sure to select clean flash and lock.

ADB and fastboot should be installed.

I flashed "persist.img" succesfully but always the same problem, stucked on Boot...

I already tried several times but I have always errors (See log of previously post). With Miflash, I succeeded to flash the 2 boot et 2 system but phone is always blocked.

I tried to wipe via TWRP but it blocks on "Formatting Data using make_ext4fs...".

I think I'm good to send it at a service center...

inally he managed to flash the ROM action, thank you very much to everyone for your patience and help, especially PALMATRON and fosco_

He used the tutorial of this link: https://xiaomifirmware.com/roms/down...-xiaomi-mi-a1/

1. Tools Download r26 for Windows.

2. Unzipped the instruments on disk C of my computer.

3. Unzipped the files of the last ROM available for the Xiaomi Mi A1 in the folder C: \ Tools so that the Images folder and the flashing scripts that come with the ROM are included in it.

4. Then double click on flash_all.bat to delete everything and just leave the boot loader open.

5. Automatically start flashing and take about 10-15 minutes and voila!

[Moto Z Play Questions & Answers] canezila:
Hello. I have a question about quality of service and Z play. I live in the USA and want a modernish phone with an unlocked bootloader. Doesn't seem too much to ask right? I have to buy the phone... Should be able to do what I want with it.... Right?

Will a sprint Z play work?
[Moto Z Play Questions & Answers] Artim_96:
in the US that topic is very complicated. There are variants at least for sprint and verizon. Then there is an unlocked GSM version which supports bands from all major carriers, but not all of them. Then there are features like VoLTE that will only work e.g. with a Verizon variant with a Verizon SIM. So which variant is for you depends on which carrier you want to use and what special functions the carrier variants have. So a sprint Z Play will work if Sprint has a good coverage at your place. There is a thread at motorolas forum you might want to read to, there are some differences explained by a moderator:

Hi everyone!

We are starting to push the incremental roll-out of OxygenOS 9.0.6 for both the devices.

[Changelog]

System

:

Updated Android security patch to 2019.10

General bug fixes and improvements

Updated GMS apps

For those who were on previous versions for OnePlus 3 and 3T, we appreciate your active feedback and attempts to reach out to us. With your help, we have been able to better optimize and improve several key areas. Thank you for your patience and as always, we look forward to hearing your continued feedback in the bug reporting forum here: https://forums.oneplus.com/feedback/

This OTA will have a staged rollout, the OTA will be received by a limited number of users initially and will have a broader rollout in a few days after making sure there are no critical bugs, so using VPN to download this build might not work as the rollout Is not based on regions and is randomly pushed out to a limited number of devices.

This will be the last update for these two devices and we can't thank you enough for your invaluable feedback throughout these three years. With your support, we improved Oxygen OS across three major Android versions and dozens of updates. This is not the end for the OnePlus 3 and 3T, though. Starting next week, we will start highlighting some of the great work done by the developer community, for those of you considering to have a go at Custom ROMs.

Your feedback is appreciated. Hope you enjoy and let us know how you feel about the update in the comments below.

Never Settle :fingers-crossed:

[OnePlus 3T Guides, News, & Discussion] Siddk007:
Installation Methods

Follow the steps correctly otherwise you may brick your device. I am not responsible for any damage to your device, please ensure that your device is at least 60% charged to prevent the accidental shutdown in-between the update process.

Important Note: If your device’s Bootloader is Unlocked, then installing this firmware will factory reset your phone as this is a firmware upgrade. All your personal data and app data will be wiped clean! So backup before flashing!

Download the necessary files from the post above and follow as below.

********************* For OOS Non Rooted Users with Stock Recovery *****************

1. Download the appropriate OTA from above link and place it in the root folder.

2. Navigate to Settings > System Updates > Settings Icon > Local Upgrade & Select the OTA File

3. Once selected system would prompt upgrade now

4. Select upgrade now and system would reboot in stock recovery and flash the OTA

5. The installer would itself flash the OTA and reboot the device.

The Device will reboot and your OnePlus 3/3T is now running on the latest OxygenOS firmware & OS based on 9.0 Pie :fingers-crossed:

PS: The first boot may take some time so keep calm and wait for it to boot.

************************ For OOS users with TWRP and unlocked Bootloader************************

NOTE: This dirty flashing method is from the users who tried it and were successful. Please backup to be on safer side.

1. In TWRP, wipe cache & dalvik

2. Flash OOS Full Rom Zip

3. Flash Magisk for Root access (Optional)

4. Reboot to TWRP (to retain recovery as TWRP)

5. Reboot to system

************************ For Custom ROM Users with TWRP Recovery************************

Download the required files from Post 2

Once you have downloaded all the required files on your device, please follow as below:

Backup your phone storage contents to an external mass storage as everything will be wiped.

1. Reboot to TWRP recovery

2. Wipe Dalvik , System, Data & Cache

3. Format Data partition - system will be encrypted (this is a must else system will not boot the new Android version)

- Now your phone has been completely wiped. Copy the zip files to your phone by connecting to your PC/laptop while still in TWRP

3. Install Menu > Select OOS Full Rom Zip > Swipe to Flash

4. Flash Magisk for Root access (Optional)

5. Wipe Dalvik & Cache

6. Reboot System and enjoy latest OxygenOS based on 9.0 Pie :fingers-crossed:

PS: Do not flash partial update OTAs (under 1 GB) on a modified device! If you want to use partial OTAs, you must first flash a full OTA that it applies to, and then flash the partial OTA from stock recovery. Flashing partial OTAs from TWRP will either fail or soft brick your device. You can return to a usable state by flashing one of the above full OTA zips in recovery.

You need to get blu_spark TWRP 3.2.1.x (v8.61)

Hi,

thanks for this hint! Using Magisk 14.6 did the trick for me, combined with the blu_spark TWRP 3.2.1.x (v8.61) and wiping Dalvik/Cache.

After the first start, I ran the update to Magisk 15.1 directly in Magisk Manager and it also worked.

Every try befoe that led to a non starting system that got stuck in the OnePlus screen.

Can magisk be flashed after rebooting the rom? I tried flashing rom and magisk at the same time and it was stuck at the 'powered by Android' screen for about 7 minutes.
[OnePlus 3T Guides, News, & Discussion] Siddk007:
yes, flash magisk after rebooting the rom
[OnePlus 3T Guides, News, & Discussion] RASTAVIPER:
What do you mean?

If you flash the Rom and then you reboot without flashing Magisk,then you will lose the custom recovery.

In this case not only you wont be able to flash Magisk, you will have the stock recovery and you will have to start the whole process from scratch

After upgrading OOS 5.x.x I noticed that even though phone connects perfectly with my car bluetooth and I can play songs and listen to podcasts but as soon as I try to pickup a call, I don't hear anything from car speakers. I have to manually switch to phone speaker.

It as working great till OOS 4.5.x and I never faced such before, is there any tweaks for it? I am on the road 4/5 hours a day and need to use bluetooth handfree function regularly.

Then you could boot, then you had OS installed.

Maybe you were using a non-updated blu_spark TWRP (not kernel).

Anyway, you will need to install a modified Pixel Launcher (newer than Google Now Launcher) or a modified GNL, there are a few versions here on XDA so just give a search and try by yourself what fits better for you :good:

Hello,

i'm not very confortable with this update.

I'm almost sure i read somewhere that updating to Android 8.0 might cause a problem for devices with dm-verity enabled.

Is it still true ? Did i misread it ?

From what i understand (being rooted on OOS 4.5.1) i need to :

- Clean flash OOS 5.0.1 full update

- flash magisk v14.6 and then update via GUI
[OnePlus 3T Guides, News, & Discussion] Clark789:
Yes, exactly the right way...

Yes, you can do it this way. There are some guys, who recommend to use Magisk 14.x for flashing and then update via Magisk Manager. I was on Magisk before moving to Oreo and used Magisk 15.3 during the update and it works...
