[HTC U11  Questions & Answers] arknailed7754:
Right random question

Ive had every htc device thus far up to the u11. My nexus 5x will be going to my son soon and im looking for a new one

The s8 looks like it breaks to easy

the lg and her rooting seems to have bugs in their roms

Otherwise its an oneplus 5/5t or the u11. (Yes im aware of the pixel 2 xl and the huawei p20 pro but personally i find the prices of these even second hand bordering on the " i may not eat for the month" so noo!

Now knowing what you know would you get a u11 again?

NOTE to mods. This question isnt asking for a comparison thats just my views on them, im asking for an opinion of the u11 from the users!
[HTC U11  Questions & Answers] dodendemise:
If you're on Verizon I would say definitely not. It has a lot of issues and can be a PITA. If you think the S8 is too fragile, you won't like this. The phone has a glass back that can break easily. Last, there hasn't been an update for this phone in about 6 months so it feels abandoned by htc.
[HTC U11  Questions & Answers] Anon2016:
I used it for about 11 months before mine stopped accepting a charge. The USB port is dying and I've verified that it isnt the cord or adapters as well as ensured that the port is clean of dust and debris. I had the signal loss issue on Verizon but the phone was a pleasure on T-Mobile. I'm sad to say I would not get it again because of the USB problem and HTCs inability to offer acceptable post sale support/repairs.
[HTC U11  Questions & Answers] CurtisMJ:
Honestly. No. This is to say nothing about the device itself. I love mine (Gyro sensor is about the only complaint). Reading on the forums I seem to have had rather good luck with mine though. Even after multiple falls from table height, involuntary dives in warm chlorinated water and dragging it through a very dusty 5 day hike mine still works perfectly, but I'm obliged to say the final verdict is that it's more fragile than most and prone to vary in manufacturing quality. The support seems very bad too. You might get lucky and never have to take it in, but you might not. The device is fantastic, HTC not always so much.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Desperate4help:
I am in dire need of help.

My phone is locked, i don't know my google password.

Its an old phone of mine, i never thought I would need it but the text messages on there will prove to the court that my ex abused me and my kids.

He served me via newspaper. So i had no clue he was even trying to take the kids until he showed up on my doorstep with a sheriff. My babies are with this horrible man and the only proof i have is in my text messages in that phone. Is there any way to get them? Im desperate for help. My babies are 5 and 7 years old. Please is there anyone who knows what I can do?

The phone is a samsung tracphone SCH-S738C.

Sincerely,

I don't have such issue with the MI 8 128GB China ROM version. I'd strongly suggest trying to flash the MIUI 10.

Can you turn on the flashlight? If the flashlight is not working, then I'm sorry that your camera hardware is most likely spoiled.
[Xiaomi Mi 8 Questions & Answers] tunghb86:
I can turn on the flashling, it is working. I flash rom miui 10 but can't fix it
[Xiaomi Mi 8 Questions & Answers] g104:
How you flash MIUI 10? I'm still unable to get it. So your camera is not spoiled, but a software issue. Did you clear the camera cache?
[Xiaomi Mi 8 Questions & Answers] tunghb86:
My phone unlocked and flash rom on TWRP. I cleared the camera cache but can't fix this error. I fastboot back rom MIUI 9.5 China Stable V9.5.6.0.OEACNFA on MI PC but can't fix.
[Xiaomi Mi 8 Questions & Answers] g104:
Never mind. Since the phone is not mine, but my mom is using it. I'm sticking with the MIUI 9 stable version.
[Xiaomi Mi 8 Questions & Answers] Hennessy86:
Did the camera work with miui 10 Beta? I am on this Rom and camera works fine. Bootloader still closed.

Did you try a clean flash (wipe everything, also format Data) ?
[Xiaomi Mi 8 Questions & Answers] _katho_:
Been running MIUI 10 china since it came out, no issues. Have not unlocked bootloader.

Installed from built in updater.
[Xiaomi Mi 8 Questions & Answers] g104:

[Xiaomi Mi 8 Questions & Answers] AntoXik72:
You're not alone, camera error after the flash of miui 10 beta too, i've tried everything : fastboot flash, miui 10 beta, miui 9 stable, Factory reset, erase of camera data, wipe everything, i've sent a message to my seller and i'm planning to send it back for another mi 8 ( sorry for my language, i'm french )
[Xiaomi Mi 8 Questions & Answers] djjul:
I am at the same point. talking to the seller although if someone made a backup for twrp it might work for us.
[Xiaomi Mi 8 Questions & Answers] AntoXik72:
I was thinking about the fact that it may come from the kernel, because I think that maybe that's just a module disabled, because when you set up face unlock, the front facing camera is working, but that's the only thing that makes the camera work
[Xiaomi Mi 8 Questions & Answers] tunghb86:
I think this error may come from the kernel. too. i've tried everything : fastboot flash, miui 10 beta, miui 9 stable, Factory reset, erase of camera data, wipe everything but can't fix this error.

[MENTION=2311697]_katho_[/MENTION] Can you provide us the step by step procedure? Thanks.

Which one should I download? 线刷包（2750M）卡刷包 （1790M）
[Xiaomi Mi 8 Questions & Answers] AntoXik72:
I was on miui 9.5 stable, miui 10 beta was out 1 week after I received the phone, I wanted to install it so I unlocked my bootloader, flashed twrp, wiped cache davilk, system, data etc like I always do since around 8 years, but then, after rebooting on miui 10, no camera anymore. The only difference is that after flashing miui 10, before rebooting, twrp told me "no system installed, are you sure to reboot?" I checked the Zip, it was not corrupted, I redownloaded it around 5 Times, same thing. Then I saw that for the mi 8, we needed to format the data with the "yes" typing menu, I did it and since then, no more "no system installed" message after flashing a rom but it didn't solved the issue.
[Xiaomi Mi 8 Questions & Answers] _katho_:
1790M, flash via built in Updater, worked fine for me, no issues.

So transfer the zip to the phone, choose "Choose update package" shown in the screenshot.

What a bummer. Hope there is a way to resolve it soon. Probably will be as more and more people get theirs unlocked.
[Xiaomi Mi 8 Questions & Answers] g104:
@ _katho_ Yeah, it detected 1790M, but unable to update. Can't verify update. You're allowed to flash the newest development version published by the MIUI forum from stable version only.

Should I enable the OME unlocking under the developer option? (Allow the bootloader to be unlocked) I thought that we can straight away update without any hassle.
[Xiaomi Mi 8 Questions & Answers] Hennessy86:
[MENTION=5147433]AntoXik72[/MENTION]

Did you try to flash the Xiaomi.eu Custom Rom ?

Maybe try to flash the Miui 10 Dev with the Xiaomi Tool.
[Xiaomi Mi 8 Questions & Answers] _katho_:
Very strange, I could flash it without any issues. Phone got factory reset of course after the flash. Maybe you need to tie your phone to your Mi account in "Developer Options -> Mi Unlock Status -> Add account and device" first, try that.

Custom requires unlocked bootloader.
[Xiaomi Mi 8 Questions & Answers] g104:
[MENTION=2311697]_katho_[/MENTION] Did you unlocked the bootloader or not? Damn, still unable after I added the account & device through Mi Unlock Status.
[Xiaomi Mi 8 Questions & Answers] _katho_:
No, mine is still locked.

Try with oem unlock, you have to click it several times I think till it kicks in.
[Xiaomi Mi 8 Questions & Answers] g104:
I logged in & the OEM unlocked is working, but unfortunately, I'm still unable to update the MIUI 10.

First time you use 8.6.13 or 8.6.18? FYI, both 8.6.13 & 8.6.18 also not working. (Weird)
[Xiaomi Mi 8 Questions & Answers] AntoXik72:
My bootloader is already unlocked since the 1st day I got it, I tried every rom that is out for the mi 8 : xiaomi.eu, global, beta, china, stable, every version has been tested out with every way : fastboot, tool, recovery, still no response from the camera. On miui forum, some people had the same issue on other devices and they told that when they flashed a custom rom like lineage, everything was fine, but then, back to miui, same issue again, so I don't really know what to do

---------- Post added at 02:36 PM ---------- Previous post was at 02:31 PM ----------

I'm not even sure that flashing a backup's gonna help, I really think this is more a kernel issue, associated with a camera module being disabled during the 1st flash with the "no rom installed" message in twrp before reboot.. I guess we just have to wait for kernel source release or send it back, I already ordered a Redmi 5 for the 3 weeks waiting time once sent back so... ?
[Xiaomi Mi 8 Questions & Answers] jeunewoo:
There IS no way to change this caméra error so? ?
[Xiaomi Mi 8 Questions & Answers] Hennessy86:
OK that's big s**t.

That makes me thoughtful, wanted to unlock next week and flash custom rom, but I am afraid that I then have the same problem.
[Xiaomi Mi 8 Questions & Answers] AntoXik72:
At the moment, I don't think so... Or you just can wait for another kernel or custom rom and hope that's going to work like on other devices

---------- Post added at 02:59 PM ---------- Previous post was at 02:56 PM ----------

I guess we just have to wait for a solution or a global stable..

[Xiaomi Mi 8 Questions & Answers] neverboy:
Same problem here. Apparently no solution until today.

Tried:

1. Factory Reset

2. Unlock bootloader and Fastboot flash latest China stable

3. Clean everything and Fastboot flash

4. Install latest MIUI10 beta

Nothing worked so far.

Not working both rear cameras and front camera. Also did some tests in the CIT menu (My device - All Specs - Kernel version 10 times). Accelerometer, Gyroscope, Magnetic sensor, Pressure sensor, Proximity Sensor, Light Sensor are all not returning any values. Hence, I think they don't function also.

Please, someone confirm ?

Seller suggest that I should take it to a service station for a fix (come on, a NEW 600$ phone?). Another option is to return it to China for a refund. Please share opinions.
[Xiaomi Mi 8 Questions & Answers] djjul:
Solutions:

1. Have an installable kernel (which is not yet available)

2. Have a custom ROM (which is not there)

3. It is possible that doing a backup with twrp to a my 8 that the camera works and then we would be a possible solution to restore it

4. Return it to China, but you will get problems.

Yes, in most cases clearing the mobile data and in rare cases, even restarting the phone may help. Otherwise, the phone may require complete formatting.

[Xiaomi Mi 8 Questions & Answers] dogsly:
An error occurred in the camera with the wipe of the "persist"

At the initial installation we only wipe cache, data, system. Do not touch "persist"!

You can solve the problem by taking the file "persist.img" from the "img" folder of the unpacked firmware for the fastboot, putting it in the root of the phone's file system and flashing the TWRP via the "install imgage" button.

Extract "persist.img" from your decompressed FastBoot ROM version (decompress the *.tgz file, then decompress the *.tar file inside the *.tgz and then find the "persist.img" file inside one of the directories), then transfer it to your internal storage. Enter in TWRP Recovery and then go to the "INSTALL" option, then Select the "INSTALL IMAGE" Switch below so TWRP can show you the *.IMG files of the current directory, then go to /sdcard directory and find the file you just copied and select "persist.img", flash it and reboot.
