nokia 7 unlock bootloader codes

yes you can get unlock code from techmesto.com I unlocked my nokia 7 the one with global rom installed and then i flashed calyx firmware via ost tool so now i get ota updates to 8.1.0 and calyxs firmware seems to be the orginal china firmware it comes with chinese and english only and no google play preinstalled.Here is an important thing when you flash unlock bin codes in nokia 7 you must unlock the bootloader 2 times! it looks like this(bootloader device unlocked true) and the next should read (device critical unlocked true) after that you can use ost tool and flash.I advise anyone who wish to buy a nokia 7 avoid the global rom version stick to the chinese/english where you can geta ota uppdates
[Nokia 7 Guides, News, & Discussion] akagi82:
Thanks for the ROM hikari_calyx. I just used techmesto.com to unlock my phone as well. The guy over there seemed competent adn available, and instructions on site were the clearest I found for the Nokia 7, although it wasnt perfect.

4g and mobile data problems

Hey guys. I don't know if anyone else has faced the issue. I followed every step in the post and after installing the stock rom and booting the device i couldn't get my 4g LTE and mobile data going. I tried reflashing the device and all kinds of other magic tricks, but no luck. Can someone help me fix the problem?:rolleyes:
[Nokia 7 Guides, News, & Discussion] Artaius:
Seems that some of us have the same issues getting the Data Connection work again under updating to Android 8.1. The only way for me was to reflash Nougat and then updated till Android 8.0. Then i disabled the "Check for updates". i tried this many times - always the same. So i will stay with 8.0. for the moment (as i can live with the little changes from 8.0 to 8.1 - even the Security Patches)

Think we have to wait for Android P......

Hi folks,

Just wondering did you give any feedback to support@nokisphones.com or via Nokia mini program in Wechat (official support channel for Nokia 7, Ta-1041) about the lack of mobile data + 4G connection after Android 8.1.0 update?? I have done it several times and advice all facing this problem to do same, otherwise problems is not highlighted in support side and never fixed, but if we can somehow give enough feedback fix will come sooner or later? I'm facing this same problems with Finnish operators.

tnx

THE nb0 TWRP CAN'T flash it in nokia7 8.00?
[Nokia 7 Guides, News, & Discussion] Bambukers:
I got a question: I have flashed the system with original ROM from XDA, but after I booted the phone it offered me a new system update 069A.B02 with December 2017 security patch. It looked suspicious, it’s not Oreo, for sure. I clicked download and then, after download, agreed to install. It was installing up to 34%, then quickly go to 38% and then go back to 0% and then it says failed to install. I tried to do it many times, but it never worked. I tried to put it on a SD card and install it from recovery menu, but it also failed. It was saying something like the file got the timestamp = 0 and it was expected to be equal 1565443 (or other numbers, but looks like this), then I was pressing buttons and the screen changed to “installing system update” and then “error”. So nothing worked.

Current build is 00CN_0_430 and with October 1 2017 security patch.

Can you give any advice? Thank you!

goodnews,can you test it with this ?

android/general/sharp-aquos-s2-ss2-sat-thread-t3761071

1. Enter fastboot mode: connect usb, power off prone or restart same time pressing VOLUP + POWER, on Logo release power button. You have to see "Download mode" on screen (same thing you can do it from android with adb command: "adb reboot bootloader")
2. First of all check if you have tryes left in device-type:
"fastboot.exe oem cert_timecount get"
When is 0 you will be not able to unlock (unless you make changes) so STOP HERE! and visit here
if >0 then go to step 2.
2. Enter cmd in console: "fastboot getvar productid" -> you will get 16 digits serial number
3. Convert serial number to md5 hash ( you can to here
4. Enter cmd in console: "fastboot oem dm-verity [md5 hash generated from serial number (without quotes)]-> you should see "OK" response if you done it ok.

Issues with google account

So, I did the firmware reinstall process fine, my phone is getting updated fine (on October 18 patch) however i'm getting some issues and want to confirm if this is normal or there's something wrong with my device.

There is no google welcome wizard after hard reset, so when a fresh start it doesn't allow me to restore any config saved on drive, either from my old device Nokia 5.

I have to manually add my google account to install all my applications, there is no issues installing my software.

Google backup is not working at all, even clicking "backup Now" option on settings, I am always getting an error that my backup failed and to try again later. I've also try backup from ADB with errors. All the backup oprions says "Waiting for backup"

I can't use "ok goolge" to unlock my device "Voice Match" option is greyed out and can't be enabled, despite of, google assistant works fine.

Another issue I have is, I don't have access to google Location History on this device.

Also can't send SMS as there is no SMSC number configured. I've tried to set the SMSC number of my carrier but it fails

If any of you facing any issues with Nokia 7.

Thanks

Is there an option to have temporary root on the nokia 7?
[Nokia 7 Guides, News, & Discussion] gorgopatamos:
@gsdovali: i had to reset my phone once when it was running the faux international rom, and now again with the original chn-eng rom. the problems in both cases were google related: loss of access to play store, maps. location history and other settings (but not play books and content), problem accessing google servers, etc. everything goes normal for 6 months, upgrades, patches and all, then suddenly bam, you are out of google's game. some kind of punishment for side-loading play store from the chinese app store/using a device you are not supposed to use, I guess. just my two cents oc - the hilarious error messages (no internet while downloading local maps from the internet) do not prove anything. :)

good news is, hard reset brings everything back... for another 6 months at least.

Hello @gsdovali, I am also having the same kind of problems on my Nokia 7 (TA-1041) with the official Android 9 Pie (Build number "00CN_3_47C"):

● After a factory reset, there is no option to restore backup from Google

● Impossible to perform Back up to Google Drive through phone settings (clicking "Back up now" button always returns "Couldn't backup data. Try again later." and all active backups listed are "Waiting to backup"; trying through ADB "bmgr backupnow --all" also fails)

● Impossible to enable Location Sharing on Google Maps

● Impossible to enable Location History on Google Maps (Location History is always empty)

Thanks for the suggestion @gorgopatamos, however I have already tried factory resetting it many times and unfortunately nothing changes for me.

I am currently hoping that an update shows up fixing at least the location related ones.

Any help on circumventing those issues would be greatly appreciated!

Hello.

I installed Resurrection Remix 5.5.9 on my old Kindle Fire HD 7 Tate and Google Apps. I intend to use this tablet as a remote control for a Chromecast with Home. It works with Youtube, for example, but in the Play Store, I can not download the Netflix app (not adapted to the version of the Tate, Android 5.1.1). I downloaded the latest version and tried to install it manually but it always crashes at the opening.

Which version to use ? Where to download ?

Thank you.

How long your phone keep on without charging? (the USB connections IS charging you know :) ) (please write the common usage (Wi-Fi, BlueTooth, call time, etc.))

Is there any difference between PC charging and charger charging? (speed, quality etc.)

Yesterday I have FULL PC charge and after 12 Hours of active usage (20-30 min Wi-Fi, 20-30 min. talking, 10 min GPRS, 20 min other staff like gaming) the phone turn off.

12 Hours are not much :).

If I charging with charger I will have better time?

10x
[HTC Excalibur] bratz:
i think that when you switch off the phone when you want to charge, the battery take too long. sorry for my bad english

[HTC Excalibur] corfou:
Phone conv are not draining battery a lot

Same for bluetooth

WiFi more

Backlight, gaming and GPS prog a lot

So first, reduce backlight and screen timeout to minimum

Then find a prog to kill unneeded running applications

With 1H phone conv/day -> 3 days

+ BT 2,5

+ Wifi and/or gaming -> 12H

Less for phone+BT+GPS

The 620's best friend is a mobile loader

I see.

10x for the info.

What it mobile loader?

Do you use USB charging or charger?

Hi,

I use mine all day with wi-fi and a few hours with BT on, so I bought this charger kit and I'm not worried anymore for the battery life...:)
[HTC Excalibur] bratz:
i usually use usb charging when i insall program and i dont know exactly how long i use it. but when i used wi fi the battery dont survive more... i dont know. maybe you have installed software that consume your battery.... for example photo contact...
[HTC Excalibur] littleclown:
I have optimized the system, and don't use the Photo editor or other heavy programs. My girlfriend plays on bubble breaker for 30minutes per day :).

Maybe Wi-Fi uses more power than I think.

Empel1960 I am poor Bulgarian man - 30 bucks is much for me :). I bought this phone for about $250 and I am out of money :).

I have simple USB wall charger and I use it because my original charger is on US standart, and all bulgarian power slots are on Japanise standart. I think that maybe if I found an convertor for US to Japanese standart and use original charger maybe the speed of charging will be more.
[HTC Excalibur] bratz:
what software do you use to optimize your system?
[HTC Excalibur] littleclown:
I just keep clean startup directory (there is one icon for WiFi), don't use software who need to be ON all time (plugins, trackers, reminders, etc) and every time when I end some activity on phone, like gaming, browsing, using camera end so on I use Celetask to shutdown all programs and optimize the RAM. I believe this reduce the power needs of the phone.

[HTC Excalibur] Reeg:
I got my Dash about 8 or 9 months ago and it started with WM5. I then upgraded to WM6, and now to 6.1. Over the course of the 8 or 9 months I have slowly noticed my battery go to $h*t. I stopped using my WiFi because of how much battery it would suck up. Now I text a lot and my battery won't even last me a full day. I have to charge it while I'm at work and most likely charge it when I get home. Time for a new battery I'm thinkin.
[HTC Excalibur] ibeqa:
FYI,

A lot of things determine battery drain. Wifi, Bluetooth and WMP are always hungry and consume battery a lot. Than Radio (some radios require more "juice" according to the hermes, also some radios that work in Europe don't work well in the states or "down under"). Another thing that I noticed, WM6.1 needs more power.

In the end, most important thing is how you charge your battery from the begining. Never let your battery to go below 40%, It is better to do several charges than a full recharge.

Cheers
[HTC Excalibur] jbullock50:
I have the Dash and I had my battery for about 7-8 months before it wouldn't keep a charge for an hour. When I called T-Mobile they said that was pretty much normal. The upside was I bought a desktop stand with a new battery on ebay for about $17 USD shipped. The battery is working extremely well. I figure by the next time the battery goes out it will be my excuse to get the Sony Xperia X1.

I don't know how money I will give for shipping battery to Bulgaria... It is not normal for me to change the li-on battery in 7-8 months...
[HTC Excalibur] jbullock50:
Honestly it's not normal for me either. I haven't had a battery go south like this before. Usually what happens is I end up getting a new device between 1 and 2 years.

I charge it all night using the home charger. Then when I get to work i play music through bluetooth and only lasts for about 3 hours before i put it back on the charger at work. Suckss

This is the price of thin design :).

I will be happy to use it for more than 24 hours without charging....
[HTC Excalibur] littleclown:
For others who have Battery problems:

..In power settings set the shortest times about light

..Don't keep programs alive after use them

..Use Light config in new WM6.1 ROM - this will make light weaker when this program running - no problem if you are in some dark place, but saves for you a lot of battery

..Settings-->Connection-->WLAN-->Power Mode. From here you can set "Best battery" and keep the check of auto turn off.

If there are another methods to make battery life longer - please share.
[HTC Excalibur] jsp_m:
HKCU/ControlPanel/Power/Display -> reduce below the standard minimum found in Settings, saves A LOT of batt drain

e.g. 10 (seconds) suffices for normal use

Get the method from here:

https://bbs.htc.com/cn/thread-109059-1-1.html

----------

This method seems to modify the original system version number so that the old version of the RUU file can pass the checking.

--------------------

Backup your data before downgrading.

--------------------

1. Download the RUU file which is the version you need.

2. Reboot to download mode, then flash the TWRP via fastboot.

Unofficial TWRP for U11+: https://xdaforums.com/htc-u11/development/unofficial-htc-u11-twrp-recovery-t3706264

Fastboot command:

3. Reboot to recovery mode, then get sde1 file by :

4. Open the file with a text editor and change the version number, which is easy to found, to the version number of your RUU file.

5. Push back the file by

If it shows "does not have enough space", delete the original file by the files manager in the recovery first.

6. Flash your RUU file by entering into the download mode after copying it to the SD card.

Tested on U11+ China version, no problems found.

Hope this can help you:o.

I think you can flash ruu normally.

You can flash older version of RUU follow software number and it's same version android.

If you want to rollback from new version android ,this method is important.

Ex RUU 1.xx.400.x Android 8.0

Your devices is software number 1.24.400.x ,Android 8.0

You can use Ruu above for flash your device.
