Hi.

Probably many of you already saw the new bootloader (the initial screen on boot) on our devices after OxygenOS BETA 10 and most probably many of you miss the old one where you can easily boot to recovery/fastboot with the volume keys?

Well, I missed it too so I've created a simple Aroma flashable zip with both of them :)

So, what is this?:

This is a simple aroma flashable zip which contains both the old and the new bootloader of Oneplus 5.

How can I use it?:

Simply flash the zip in TWRP and check which bootloader version you want to be flashed.

Can I revert this?:

Yes. Flash the "NEW" bootloader using the zip or simply flash OOS BETA 10/11.

THIS IS ONLY FOR ONEPLUS 5, DO NOT TRY TO FLASH THIS ON 5T OR ANY OTHER PHONE!!!!!

Changelog:

V.1.2 - Bootloader images update (thx to [MENTION=5893314]shadowstep[/MENTION] )

V.1.1 - Aroma script changes (from checkbox to selectbox... + some other small string changes)

V1.0 - Initial

Download v.1.2:

Download v.1.1:

Of course the zip was tested on my phone and it works fine, so have fun! :)

[OnePlus 5 Themes, Apps, and Mods] RogerF81:
Nice one!
[OnePlus 5 Themes, Apps, and Mods] shadowstep:
Thanks for this. I already made flashable zips for this and they're up in my OnePlus 5 folder in MediaFire (link in signature) but they're normal TWRP flashable zips. Having an aroma installer is definitely better though, one zip than two. :) So thanks again! Hope you're enjoying your vacation mate!

Open source cnp when? New bootloader was causing me panic attacks similar to snowphobia. Hope it solves my attacks
[OnePlus 5 Themes, Apps, and Mods] siankatabg:
I've uploaded v.1.1. Checkbox was not the best idea when you want to flash just one of the options, so now it is a select box. Sorry about that :svetius:

P.s. - You can't do a harm on your phone with v.1.0 if you check both options, it will just flash the old one then the new one (so you'll always end with the new one). Anyway, it looks better and it's properly made now (:
[OnePlus 5 Themes, Apps, and Mods] shadowstep:
I just opened up the thread to suggest this change (that you move from check boxes to select boxes) and saw that you already did that a few minutes back! Could you just enjoy your vacation and not be so efficient? :p

Trouble with simcard unlock key

Can someone help me with my unlock code for my fone that was sent to me by my relatives outside PHILIPPINES..I am having trouble using my phone with local network coz its looking for sim PUK unlock key.. Hope someone could help me out here
[Samsung Galaxy J7 NXT ( J701F Core NXT Exynos 7870] PantsDownJedi:
Its an unlock code for the sim card, not the phone, so if the phone carrier is in the same area as you then possibly you can just call and ask them for the puk code by giving them the phone number or for a new sim perhaps and make sure it works before you leave the store.

[Huawei Mate 9 Guides, News, & Discussion] scrutnizing:
Hello everybody, i was handed a mate 9 handset from a friend in as is condition.

I don't know what have it been through.

The phone's back shows it is MHA-l29

Trying with buttons:-either i can enter erecovery connect to wifi. and the recovery will fail.

I can enter an interface called TRWP.

There is no OS installed on the handset apparently.

I don't know where to start, please help me. I'm willing to grasp concepts quickly, and a step by step guide will be appreciated ! thx.

Edit: i did download an "update.zip" and copied it through computed, tried to install it but got a command error...
[Huawei Mate 9 Guides, News, & Discussion] ante0:
Do you have adb/fastboot drivers installed? If not: https://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2317790

When you have that installed, boot into TWRP then tap on the Reboot button and then on the Bootloader button.

Plug in USB and open a command prompt, type the following command:

fastboot oem get-build-number

Post the result here
[Huawei Mate 9 Guides, News, & Discussion] scrutnizing:
i solved this issue just today, i didn't get lucky with stock rom kept boot looping. What i did is get fromfuture mate 9 custom rom, place the zip in twrp folder and install zip from there.

The update.zip wouldn't install this way. At least my phone is working now.

Thanks :)

Edit: I also tried to flash update.app image components after extraction, using fastboot. It didn't work, I don't recommend this method.

The custom rom is life saving.
[Huawei Mate 9 Guides, News, & Discussion] ante0:
Ah, then you're on Nougat.

The reason I asked about fastboot was to find out what build/fw you were on, then go from there to install stock firmware.

You could update to Oreo using: https://xdaforums.com/mate-9/how-to/guide-mate-9-flash-update-package-t3593108
[Huawei Mate 9 Guides, News, & Discussion] scrutnizing:
hey thanks!

The reason why im statisfied with this is that when flashing stock rom, it worked the first time (no bootloop), but the camera was not working, neither developper mode. Thats why i wiped, reflashed and got stuck in bootloop, no idea why. Also i could only flash a few of the images in update.app, very few. So it was not ideal, other images would yield an error in fastboot when flashing (command failed), i read online and figured this is perhaps due to a bad unlocking in the bootloader (if i understood correctly) at this point i felt that i could no longer process and learn info in android world, after all it was only one day that i'm into android and i felt tired, so i took the ladt chancd and decided to try the custom rom, im now satisfied with results, but many question marks are still in my head.
[Huawei Mate 9 Guides, News, & Discussion] ante0:
It's because you can't flash everything from fastboot with just phone unlocked.

You can flash: System, vendor, boot (ramdisk and kernel for oreo), recovery (recovery_ramdisk, recovery_vendor, recovery_vbmeta for oreo), cache, userdata. (I think those are it)

Flashing anything else requires you to unlock bootloader, but it needs a special code which none of us normal people have. :/

[MENTION=2247733]ante0[/MENTION]

Can you give a hand, please ?

I unlocked the bootloader and flashed the recovery, the system booted successfully.

I tried to flash a ROM after that, it showed errors and didn't complete the flashing. since that time the phone has bootloop.

Unlocked bootloader and FRP

fastboot oem get-build-number : MHA-L29 8.0.0.374(C185)

I can access the TWRP recovery and erecovery and bootloader&fastboot

what I have already tried :

1-Fastboot flash ramdisk and kernel .

2-Tried to flash the stock firmware via TWRP.

3-Tried HurUpdater0.3

4- Extract update.app & HOWTA

better to flash baseband of 1.70 or 1.76.. else you can try on this 2.0 baseband too :)

It's 0.2 actually.. It's a custom baseband built for nougat originally.. Although it works with Oreo but should be avoided.. Like you said 1.70(oreo) or 1.76 is the best option..

I've heard reports saying that this 0.2 baseband doesn't go well with some WiFi routers..

[Galaxy Grand Prime Themes and Apps] Dhrubosen206:
I have a g531h in which i have tried many nougat roms but

Then it has a lot of bugs. So i decided to use my stock android

With mods. But for face unlock i had to flash micro/nano gapps which contain a lot of other stuff i don't need. Also grand prime being 8 gb only it takes up a lot of space. So i decided to extract face unlock from the gapps zip but ended up messing up my phone ( noob error). So instead i started searching for it and now i am sharing it with you.

Go to the link below and download the file and flash as usual

I am not responsible for damage to ur device but there are hardly and chances of damage. Should work on most lollipop roms.

I guess it is related to Huawei's decision on pulling out from the US market. National security may be a good reason/execuse to reject Huawei from biding the network infrastructer developments but it doesn't make sense to banning them from entering the consumer market.

[Huawei Mate 10  Guides, News, & Discussion] Luinwethion:
I took some quick shots just to test it, I hope to have time tomorrow to put it to test in a more photogenic scenario.

But let's get something out of the way first, because I see the following question / complaint coming up already.

"Oh but the P20 pro takes much better night pictures, Huswei promised us a night mode and gave it half backed"

This is the B145 firmware for the C432 region, it's not released and as it sometimes happens it might never be, even if they release this firmware, nothing stops Huawei from fine tunning the software in future updates.

The P20 pro has a bigger sensor that's capable of absorbing more light and it has a bigger Pixel count so Pixel binning will result in a better picture if the software is doing it's job properly.

Last but not least, unless you have both phones comparing side by side, you cannot say that one is better than the other by looking a pic some reviewer took in Paris and comparing one you did in your back yard.

As for the software interface, no we haven't got the P20 camera interface, you will still need to swipe from left to open the mode menu and choose night mode.

As for the software it self, it's not magical, it compensates small hand movements that even the steadiest hand will have trying to hold a phone for 4 seconds, it won't perform any miracle if you don't keep steady or of the object is moving.

Comparison between auto mode and night mode.

Will have better samples over the weekend, I'll try to have the files up tomorrow on Onedrive if anyone wanna look at them.

the p20 pro night mode did not blur photos when holding by hand unless you're having a sneeze attack.

To me this doesn't look any different than the normal night mode that came with the mate 10 pro.

I dont think the AI stabilization has been applied. Possibly the change log is wrong about the camera improvements.
[Huawei Mate 10  Guides, News, & Discussion] garvani:

[Huawei Mate 10  Guides, News, & Discussion] Luinwethion:
I played very little with the P20 pro, but aside of the clear hardware differences, and maybe some more optimization in stichting the frames, I see a similar result, besides the college that owns the P20 pro managed to take quite a lot of blurry picture, specially when the phone decides for a longer exposure on extreme situations.

Like I've said here on top, I see a similar result on the way it works.

I've tried using night mode before and it was unusable holding it on hand, even with a tripod slightly movements due wind would result in blurry pictures.

You always have the option to sell it and get something better.

The only difference is the way the interface looks, on the P20 pro the most used modes are on a slider in de botton like on the iPhone, in the Mate it's a separated menu.

Hi, guys, have you seen this review of Mate pro camera: https://photographylife.com/reviews/huawei-mate-10-pro. It's pretty destructive. I'm not a professional photograph but I'm not happy with some portrait and night shots. The review as I understand claims that BW camera doesn't add any value to the whole process of capturing pictures and videos, and therefore the entire set acts as a single camera feature.

Any qualified objections?

Besides that as I could find from different news Huawei prepares massive upgrade for its high end models, mate 10 included. Mate 10 shall not only get the 145 upgrade in June, which brings some P20 camera features but improved VoLTE and VOWiFi as well as GPU improvement. In July it will be upgraded to 8.1. And independently of that it is getting Windows 10 in cloud, starting soon in China and later passing over to Europe: https://androidcommunity.com/huawei-phones-running-windows-10-heres-how-it-will-happen-20180615/

Great news and really precious move from Huawei. A lot of unique features, much more than you can get from other brands as an upgrade. Hopefully they will fix the camera issue. You can have nice shots with only one decent camera too. And Leica supposed to make high end cameras. Its on Huawei to add adequate software.
[Huawei Mate 10  Guides, News, & Discussion] microhaxo:
The reviewer on that site is wrong about many things. The conclusions they make are based on wrong assumptions.

First of all, the main sensor is 12mp and the monochromatic sensor is 20mp. When doing 2x zoom you are using the 20mp sensor to get closer and using RGB data from the 12mp to fill in the color. When just shooting normal at 12mp color, you are using the 20mp sensor that downsamples to 12mp for contrast and detail from the monochromatic image.

This camera Absolutely uses both lenses to combine and make the best photo.
[Huawei Mate 10  Guides, News, & Discussion] :
Also you can shoot 20mp RGB pictures.

---------- Post added at 11:31 PM ---------- Previous post was at 11:25 PM ----------

The cameras on the Mate 10 have no hardware weakness, but huawei doesn't use auto-hdr on their "photo" default mode. You need to SPECIFICALLY shoot in HDR mode to shoot HDR. Also shoot HDR all the time dude, it's always better, more contrast, more details, Pixel 2 XL "look" pictures. Also HDR doesn't overexpose as much as default photo mode. Which is the REAL WEAKNESS of the mate 10 camera, just overexposure, huawei can fix this in 5 minutes if they wanted to, just dial back the exposure a bit...

But its dishonest to compare mate 10 auto mode, with pixel 2 auto mode, since pixel 2 ALWAYS uses HDR on its camera, while mate 10 doesn't use HDR in auto...

(HDR means picture stacking in different exposures)
[Huawei Mate 10  Guides, News, & Discussion] Tiago A:
1) Night Shot

2) HDR
[Huawei Mate 10  Guides, News, & Discussion] Luinwethion:
I still haven't had enough time to test the night mode, and I might not have it anytime soon... at 11 PM it is still too bright outside.

But i've seen a bit more, and I'm of the opinion that Huawei still has quite a lot of work to do here, in some cases plain auto mode will give you a better shot, maybe a touch cold on the white balance (night mode gets it too warm) but the stiching of the frames isn't quite accurate enough.
