You have unknown Imei? What happened?

Anyway, you can't do pretty much nothing without unlocking your bootloader,since you need the Recovery without no fw checking for installing a different firmware with different code in a completely different Phone (we are always talking about different devices with the same Hardware)

You could try using DC-Unlocker,but you gonna need money for that,and I'm not even sure If it works since I never used it myself,so...

Just try obtaining yourself a Bootloader key and unlock yours. Let me know if you need any assistance

I have same problem, and i have a dual sim. I have b220 firmware. Bootloader unlocked, unknown imei, no baseband, old bootloader unlock code now doesnt work.

I solved by installing Oreo, you should try it too!

How can i flash it if i have bootloader unlocked and no twrp. I have stock recovery. I cant unlock bootloader.
[P8 Lite (2017) Discussion] Nickymico:
Grazie mille, mi è stato utilissimo!

I've solved the problem with DC-unlocker with just 4 euros! for everybody who is in the same trouble i really suggest to use this software
[P8 Lite (2017) Discussion] Zero_One:
You already unlocked your Bootloader, but the problem is probably in the way you're using Fastboot.

Download this recovery

Install it by using the command fastboot flash recovery_ramdisk *name of the twrp*.img

What does it give it to you?
[P8 Lite (2017) Discussion] Zero_One:
Menomale! Sono contento per te :D

DC-Unlocker solves a lot of problems, still I used a lot of other workaround for solving devices issues :laugh:
[P8 Lite (2017) Discussion] mateiocristi:
Sorry man i meant locked bootloader ... And i cant unlock it as imei is shown as unknown. Old unlocl code doesnt work now.

---------- Post added at 02:25 PM ---------- Previous post was at 01:57 PM ----------

Hello i also have unknown imei and cant do nothing. Can you tell me what exactly did you do to resolve it? Did you flashed a stock firmware or just repaired the imei?
[P8 Lite (2017) Discussion] Nickymico:
You simply have to download DC-unlocker from the site, then purchase 4 token from the site. You will have to put a nickname, the email and the number of token (you need 4 token) and then pay with paypal or whatever you want.

Then in the program insert the nickname and the password (they will send the pass by email). After this press "unlocking > bootloader code" and that's it! The bootloader code will display and you can unlock it and reinstall twrp

(Sorry for my bad explanation hopo you can understand it)

How do i update from b212 to b220 :/
[P8 Lite (2017) Discussion] Nickymico:
Download the firmware from internet and use the Dload method or try with hisuite (i've used hisuite)
[P8 Lite (2017) Discussion] Zero_One:
Simply Download the B220 Fw from the Oreo Thread

Install the Nocheck_FW recovery from the same thread

Then install the B220 Fw by using the same exactly procedures as for Oreo

[P8 Lite (2017) Discussion] Zero_One:
Keep It english guys!!

Talking in just a language but not in English is against the rules!

Anyway, The B220 is a Nougat Firmware. The Oreo firmware is a B320

What kind of error did the Oreo installation gave it to you, Nergaldarsky? I didn't encount any error from the installation.

But,wait,did you started from a Single or a Dual Sim firmware? Was it the latest?

I need to add those requisites in the Post

my phone is dual sim now, and i have a single sim p8 lite, and when i go to install the firmware i get the "installation fail" error actually im stuck with the PRA AL00XC00B212 firmware installed
[P8 Lite (2017) Discussion] Zero_One:
Installation Failed happens when the Firmware is not recognized by the Recovery

But,since you're using the Nocheck_FW recovery...

It's kinda strange.

Have you wiped the /Data image? Did it gave it some errors to you when you try to do it?

I need more information,since for me there weren't any errors apart from some installation errors I solved myself
[P8 Lite (2017) Discussion] NergalDarsky:

NRD90M test-keys compilation. And now??
[P8 Lite (2017) Discussion] Zero_One:
The IMEI unknown is caused by a wrong OEMinfo

You Need a Dual Sim One to fix it (JUST INSTALL OREO :D), I already tried it

Anyways,since there's the Oreo firmware for EUROPE

I suggest you to reinstall the Dual Sim OEMInfo from C432

Then reinstall the firmware from eRecovery,then update to the latest version. Then,and only then,try out Oreo. It's Pretty Easy to install it,but be careful
[P8 Lite (2017) Discussion] Zero_One:
It's normal.

Just install Oreo and everything will go back to normal

How do I install the European EMUI 8 Beta ?, I wanted to try this without rebranding my device to the Chinese variant

I have an PRA-LX1C432B198 btw
[P8 Lite (2017) Discussion] Zero_One:
Mmm... Just install the Norecoverycheck for Oreo. Then install Oreo.

Pretty simple,huh? Of course don't miss the various wipe during the process :o
[P8 Lite (2017) Discussion] omega_55_lul:
So I can just flash it from B198?, Isn't B206 mandatory to flash EMUI8 or something?, I already have the bootloader and FRP unlocked

And I understand that to Install EU Beta, is to

Install TWRP via fastboot

Download C432B322 (8.0.0.322) update.zip file

Place the update.zip in the SD Card root directory

Flash nocheckrecovery.img in the Recovery Partition on TWRP

Use a terminal command on TWRP ( echo --update_package=/sdcard/update.zip > /cache/recovery/command ) and Reboot

eRecovery starts updating

???

Profit (?)
[P8 Lite (2017) Discussion] HidingNemo420:
does our oeminfo contains IMEI? btw im on another custom rom, should i flash our latest stock rom nougat first before following this guide? and how does eRecovery work? does it download the update.zip according to the region updates of my current oeminfo then wipes system and data then flashes it? or i have to fully wipe the partitions manually in twrp before downloading in eRecovery?

[P8 Lite (2017) Discussion] Zero_One:
Nope, it's not mandatory to be on the latest version of the software. But if I can suggest, be sure to have a Single Sim firmware before passing from EU OEMinfo to CN OEMinfo. :o

Just flash the OEMinfo with the TWRP. eRecovery will do the rest :)

Unlock your bootloader first!

Also, if you want to remove the NRD90M test-keys: just install Oreo for Chinese BRANDING!!

Hi.

I have a PRA-LA1 8.0.0.362 (C185) EMUI 8.0.0 and would like to know what is the simplest solution to unlocking my dual sim?
[MTCD Android Head Units General] Zakowsky:
Even after reading the mega-threads on the two setups it's hard to decide which is the better way to go, if you have the choice. You can see the new PX5 octa-core units running either 8.0 or 6.0, so which to buy? The issues I see from the posts include:

- 8.0 hasn't been fully rooted, and rooting might be turn out to be difficult

- while 8.0 looks somewhat "fresh" with the not quite so fresh anymore tile styling, it has that ugly sidebar, which will require rooting to get rid of

- it seems to be hard to autorun apps on 8.0, so you can't just start up into a custom launcher

- does 8.0 really have less problems interfacing with hardware? With the variety of WiFi, Bluetooth, volume control, microphone etc. problems described in these threads, is the old establish 6.0 better at handling them, or does it lack drivers for newer versions of things like CAN bus interfaces or Torque BT adaptors?

- seems you need 8.0 for 4GB ram, does that make 8.0 worth it on its own?

It seems an even split for which version manufacturers are putting on these units. And it seems an equal number of people with 6.0 want to upgrade to 8.0 as people with 8.0 who want to downgrade to 6.0.

So to a new buyer, would you say get 8.0 or 6.0? I don't think there are many PX5's with 7.1 for some reason, which is why I left that out.

Thanks!
[MTCD Android Head Units General] Zakowsky:
I thought there would be lots of people with views on this - no strong opinions? I thought this would be the first thing to consider when choosing a unit...no?
[MTCD Android Head Units General] ale_kons:
Same questions here as well.
[MTCD Android Head Units General] megatm:
I've a Dasaita px5 2gb 6.0 and now, about a month I've upgraded to malaysk 8.0 rom.

So, talking about 8.0:

-Fully rooted, everything works perfectly with supersu in 8.0 too

- Google maps works with 8.0, with 6.0 it doesn't

-Smooth performance even with 2gb ram.

-Spotify doesn't pop up

-Working custom launchers

-Working torque

-Autostart working with malaysk rom

-CANBUS working normally

-Bluetooth quality a2dp better than 6.0 (sd-968 module)

Problems with 8.0:

-some users that use md725 Bluetooth module related that is not working due to missing drivers, but a few users says it's working.

-apps force close when you do fast boot. It's difficult to decompile mtcmanager.apk and write the whitelist to keep apps in memory.

-Google contacts not syncing properly to work with voice command. There are some methods at xda to try to use mtcdialer, but it's not working for everyone. You can use manually touching the contact, but not working properly for voice command.

-EQ is working, but fader and balance not working for me (this issue I don't know if is happening with other users too)

In general, I think that Android 8.0 even with 2gb ram worth it.
[MTCD Android Head Units General] Zakowsky:
Thanks megatm! Exactly the info that will help a lot of people who are trying to decide.

Much appreciated!

Hi, guys, i'm new here. I start excusing me of my terrible English. Thanks in advance for the support.

Yesterday i was trying to root my LG G6 truth TWRP and magisk... after i've unlocked the bootloader, installed adb/fastboot and flashed the twrp i made a BIG Mmistake.

I don't know exactly what i did in the twrp menu, i'm sure that i made a great mess in "wipe" and "mount" section (my aim was to mount 2 zip file in the "install" section). At a certain point afters something that i've made the log has stopped to proceed and the phone doesn't answer to any command. I let the phone locked in the log screen of an istallation for some houre since the battery was dead.

Now when i plug the device into the computer, or into some power plug or if i's simply unplugged it continue to reboot, every time the G6 show's to me the following message:" Your device software can't be checked for corruption. Please lock the bootloader", after a while the classic LG's logo window appear and the phone remain stucked in here, after a while automatically shutdown and reboot with the same loop: error message, lg logo. The phone doesn't answer to any command and it's impossibile to have access at the recovery mode, at the factory data reset shortcut and apparrantley also at the download mode. The only thing that have some effect is to press power & Volume down but it simply shutdown the device and the loop restart.

I desperately need a help... or better, a solution. Thank you anyway.

[LG V30 Questions & Answers] acefr:
I ripped an UHD Bluray disc and copied the 52GB file to a MicroSD card. When I tried to play it on my V30, I found:

1. the internal video player recognizes it is HDR10, and showed a HDR10 tag.

2. the fast forward functionality is disabled. I can't FF and if I paused the movie and opened it later, it played from the start.

3. even though it supports HDR10, I noticed there is some black crush on the OLED screen.

4. it does not support the embedded forced subtitle. It does support external subtitle like a SRT file.

5. tried the MX player. It supports the embedded subtitle, but still no fast forward. It does not support HDR10, so picture quality is worse.

The biggest issue is #2, as I will only watch a segment of the film at a time. No fast forward means I have to start from the beginning of the film every time.
[LG V30 Questions & Answers] einhuman197:
Exactly same issue here. The bug is known. You can use all normal features such as fast forward with VLC. HDR officially works, but doesn't work because of v30's software bug, the image is brownish in every player you try it with,no sign of HDR. They'll fix it with oreo I think.
[LG V30 Questions & Answers] acefr:
It seems the FF-disable bug is in the hardware decoding. Every player that uses the hardware decoding has the same behavior. I hope they fix it in Oreo.

i can play hdr10 using mxplayer on hw and hw+ decoder without any issues. your rom might have some problems :)
[LG V30 Questions & Answers] acefr:
Well, the Youtube video does work, but I notice the black crush common to OLED screen. i.e. the details in the dark area is lost. The contrast and color do look good.
[LG V30 Questions & Answers] acefr:
It is not my rom, which is T-mobile. The HDR10 video will play in HW and HW+ mode in mxplayer, but the HDR metadata is not processed, resulting in a washout picture compared to the internal video player, which handles the HDR metadata correctly. In both players, I can't do fast forward, or jump to a specific time in a movie, on my ripped UHD HDR10 mkv file.
[LG V30 Questions & Answers] iRS_:
it might not be the rom but it still is something on your side.

i have tested it with "Sony Bravia OLED 4K Demo", it's a 724MB mp4 video file with lenght of 1min and 23 seconds.

it plays the same with MX and intenal video player. i can see the washed colors u talk about when i switch to SW decoder.

i advise you to CHECK your MXPlayer's hardware decoder settings :)
[LG V30 Questions & Answers] acefr:
It is playing in HW. SW mode does not work due to high bitrate HEVC. Anyway, that is not the main issue, the main issue is the player cannot jump to a specific time on the movie, so I cannot pause and watch later. I suspect it is the limitation or bug of the mediaplayer API from android.
[LG V30 Questions & Answers] iRS_:
i can asure you that i can jump to specific time with MXPlayer on the video i specified :)

LE: i just downloaded some more samples and they work perfectly (i can seek, no washed colors), i can use either HW or HW+.

they aslo play in SW but with washed colors, no contrast and very laggy.

something is wrong on your end for sure. try a CLEAN rom install and try playing hdr10 videos without installing or configuring anything else, not even magisk, root, viper or wahtever. just use CLEAN rom.
[LG V30 Questions & Answers] acefr:
Well, my finding is on a ripped UHD bluray mkv. Until you can test one (think 50GB+ with full UHD bluray spec) on the mxplayer, and can fast forward and jump to specific time, it is not relevant to my issue.

By the way, the fastboot cmd is disabled in the T-mobile version V30, and root is not achieved, so it has no "magisk, root, viper or whatever." It is in the factory original ROM state.

After the first updates to Oreo and the next, the phone never plays perfectly smooth movies, even FullHD is already slightly stuck what you see after the full-length movies (mp4 and mkv) and more so in the recordings from FullHD and 4K. I returned to Nougat and it is perfectly smooth.

This is confirmed by other users in Poland and my tests in stores - phones from oreo do not play the material from the camera smoothly in fhd 60fps and 4k, you can always see how every 0.5s there is a clasp on the prison cage.

what's worse at dynamic movie scenes, it bothers me where the 24fps film is torn up to 22fps because a few falls for a second ...
