Hi everyone

I've just upgrade to a Mi8 for a mi6, I've received mine today from Gearbest it came with the international ROM pre-installed. I then noticed the bootloader was already unlocked. I checked with the Mi unlock tool and it said it was.

I was able to install twrp and miui EU right away. Well happy with that as I didn't have to wait the 2 weeks to unlock.

The only issue now is I ordered the gold one but didn't know it was rose gold hahahaha. Just waiting for the case to turn up to hide the pink. Can't complain as it was on offer for £350 for the 128gb version.
[Xiaomi Mi 8 Guides, News, & Discussion] Jeik:
Currently, every "global" Mi 8 being sold is a Chinese Mi 8 with multilang/globalrom.

By the way, do not lock the bootloader while a global rom is installed on a Chinese variant because Xiaomi made a system which bricks the phone in that case to prevent Chinese variants being resold worldwide.

You can even try GSI images out if you're up for it.
[Xiaomi Mi 8 Guides, News, & Discussion] sutt359:
I'm using miui EU ROM where Google pay still works so won't be locking the bootloader with twrp. But cheers for the heads up.

I've not seen any other custom ROMs yet. I take it GSI are the new ROMs that keep the system bits and OS in different partitions?
[Xiaomi Mi 8 Guides, News, & Discussion] Jeik:
Pretty much yeah.

You just do a factory reset and flash a GSI as a System Image through TWRP.

There are GSIs of all popular roms but the best one at least for me is RR ( it has the same edge gestures as in MIUI and a lot of other goodies ).

Of course, there will be small bugs like broken audio playback on Bluetooth headphones and automatic brightness.

But when you think about the fact that other devices have hardcore broken parts like camera and audio, one can't complain too much.

Oh yeah, Phh-treble feature roms support the notch. You can set the clock to left and toy with the lcd density ( I set it to 409 ) for the perfect layout of status bar items alongside the notch.
[Xiaomi Mi 8 Guides, News, & Discussion] sutt359:
Could you point me in the right direction to the ROMs as I don't see anything under the Mi8 section.

I locked the bootlader immadiatelly and I never logged into any Mi Account, my phone is bricked. Any suggestions?
[Xiaomi Mi 8 Guides, News, & Discussion] sutt359:
You would probably need to reflash the official ROM using miflash by going into fastboot by holding down power and vol - once restored unlock bootloader and reflash twrp.

Or you could try going fastboot connected to the mi unlock tool and see what it does.
[Xiaomi Mi 8 Guides, News, & Discussion] prwnd:
Thanks for your reply, it is impossible to flash because bootloader was locked by me. And it is impossible to unlock the bootloader, because the software asks Mi account to unlock bootloader, but there was no Mi account connected to the phone.
[Xiaomi Mi 8 Guides, News, & Discussion] sutt359:
If it's locked you should still get to fastboot to use miflash to install the genuine rom. If that doesn't work get yourself a edl cable for recovery
[Xiaomi Mi 8 Guides, News, & Discussion] hallodrix:
Same here, have you already unbricked your phone?
[Xiaomi Mi 8 Guides, News, & Discussion] yseveryns:
Maybe you can help me.

Gearbest is offering an "international version" and also a "global version".

I am affraid one of these will have an unlocked boatloader.

Any chance you bought one of these?

[Xiaomi Mi 8 Guides, News, & Discussion] labros1995:
Global Version comes with an official stable global rom and a locked bootloader.

It is intended for international use, so it has a european adapter and supports many languages.

The international version is a Chinese device with Unlocked bootloader and is flashed with an unofficial global rom to support many languages because the Chinese version of mi8 only has Mandarin and English languages by default.

If you notice package contents the "International" one says Chinese manual while the Global one says English manual.

I hope i helped you.
[Xiaomi Mi 8 Guides, News, & Discussion] gugugrp:
Buy a Global version and be happy!
[Xiaomi Mi 8 Guides, News, & Discussion] mr3p:
If you flash GSI ROM or Pixel3 ROM with TWRP on Mi8 global can bootloader be relocked or will it brick?
[Xiaomi Mi 8 Guides, News, & Discussion] trifos:
when it comes with an unlocked bootloader, which one is safe to install a fastboot China rom and lock the "clear all and lock" bootloader after it unlocks with our "mi unlock tool" account so that in the case of brick we can restore it with our account.
[Xiaomi Mi 8 Guides, News, & Discussion] Agimax:
NONE - if you lock your bootloader back, you first need the version of your phone with a STOCK ROM (Chinese, or Global) put back on your phone (ALL partitions MUST be back to stock) or you WILL BRICK YOUR DEVICE and only an Authorized EDL account can recover your phone (which they aren't giving out anymore). The Bootloader DOES NOT allow locking with a different ROM/REGION. This has been stated MANY times over LOTS of threads. That leaves a problem with places like GEARBEST and many other vendors who give you a chinese version phone with a GLOBAL version ROM and the user locks the bootloader only to get a brick.

i received a samsung s5 today from a friend and i noticed it has a custom rom installed on it.

i would like to install stock firmware for it. can anyone provide the link?

it is a samsung sm 900f baseband version g900HXXU1AANCE

thank you
[Galaxy S 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] TheFixItMan:
Don't worry about the baseband version

Just use the latest UK btu version

For example you can flash this one then ota update to the latest version

Hi all. model of my phone is 6003. just want to know if i root my phone then is it possible to restore it to fully stock. and will somebody be able to find that my phone was rooted?
[OnePlus 6 Questions & Answers] skr975:
Yes, you can restore your phone fully to stock after you root it. Once you unlock your bootloader and lock it again (while restoring to stock), it is possible that OnePlus will be able to know that the bootloader had been unlocked before.

But this shouldn't affect much because unless you are overclocking your CPU and thereby damaging the hardware components, your warranty won't be void.

I've been running this head unit that I purchased from ebay for almost 3 months, close but like a week away. It's kinda ok, but still kind of junky for what I paid for it. I clipped the hinges off, so the screen would stay open all the time. I didn't want the motor burning out and the screen getting stuck inside. Every time you turn your vehicle off, it shuts off, when you turn your vehicle on, it comes on. Even if you turn your key back to ACC so it stays running, as soon as you turn the vehicle on, it restarts the HU. I even tried running the red wire straight to the battery, same thing, then I attached the red to the yellow and straight out to the battery. It stayed on when the vehicle was off, but when I put the key back it and started the vehicle it would still restart the HU. It's like restarting your phone every time you used a different app. That's what it feels like any way. I'd turn off the vehicle and pull the key and leave the HU running, and then run into the store real quick, come back out and turn on the vehicle and the HU will restart.

The other issue is that it lost GPS signal almost a week ago. I've tried google maps, the system app speedometer and several other GPS apps and it's gone. I double checked the wire from the HU to the antenna on the roof and everything looks fine. I even factory reset it twice to see if that would fix the GPS.

I have contacted the seller several times about the things that are wrong with it, and they just give me one sentence replies that aren't even answers and the return period is over. Overall, it does what it's supposed to. the baked in apps work good enough. The car dvr is limited, but it works. the audio player is fine, no issues at all with it. Bluetooth and phone connections are good. I just really need GPS, that's the main reason I got it. Wifi is horrible. It will not connect to a source outside of a 5 ft. range and that's with an external antenna.

Any help or suggestions or comments, anything would be appreciated. What make and model is this HU? Is there a way to root it or to install a custom rom? Any way to fix the GPS? Thank you my friends, I really appreciate it. I've been a member of this site for many years, and I know that when you guys want to help, you will.

I love when I can stump you guys. You all think you're like know it all geniuses, but now and then I throw something at you that leaves you dumbfounded. This is one of those times. I win.
[Android Auto General] Mr.R™:
That kind of attitude isn't going to make anyone want to help you is it.

You haven't provided enough information about your unit for anyone to be able to even attempt to help you, more information is required, such as is it px3 or 5, is it mtcb or d/e. Best thing to do is take a screenshot of your about page on your device, the one that tells you the build number etc...

For your boot issue, if it's wired correctly check factory settings (pass may be 126, if not you'll have to search), somewhere in there is an option for auto power off.

GPS, try another antenna? Is the antenna inside or outside, does the GPS test app find any satellites? Is GPS enabled etc?

More info will help, the attitude won't, these forums also have a wealth of information, searching and reading thoroughly will often find you what you need. Yeah reading a 100 page thread is soul destroying but sometimes it has to be done to find what your looking for
[Huawei P10 Lite Questions & Answers] sham_1:
Hi all,

I'm on WAS-LX1AC432B184 and i can't update via OTA because "no update" and I think there's update as a friend of mine has the same phone but different build numbers as i needed to unlock my dual sim capability.

When i bought my phone i could only use 1 sim then i changed it to a dual sim. Can this be the reason why i can't get updates? The guy that did the dual sim conversion told me that i will be able to get updates as normal but i don't at all.

Please help me get the latest update so that i can enjoy the new Android – 8.0 Oreo
[Huawei P10 Lite Questions & Answers] zYoshi:
Hey there, by looking at your build number, you've got a 3GB RAM variant (LX1 instead of LX1A) Dual SIM (even build number) P10 lite on the global cust (C432).

The strange thing is the build number, stuck at 184 when Nougat arrived at B209/210 (Oreo is at B360/361).

Maybe you did some kind of modification (root, bad EMUI flash in the past) to the system so you can't receive official Huawei updates via OTA?

Have you tried clicking on the top right in System Update > Download latest full package?

Just some guesses here… :confused:
[Huawei P10 Lite Questions & Answers] Alexandersss:
Probably, the you're huawei p10 lite dual is a branded? Usualy these models is the very slow for porting major release.
[Huawei P10 Lite Questions & Answers] sham_1:
Hi zYoshi,

the download latest full package is greyed out... i have done a dual sim conversion in the past not sure if it was done correctly but i got it done... is there anyway i can fix this?

I want to get new updates for my phone to be honest.
[Huawei P10 Lite Questions & Answers] zYoshi:
Hi sham_1

I sent you a guide wrote quickly in DM (for anyone who might need it, I left it here).

One quick question, now you have an even build number, right? That means that you are on a Dual-SIM firmware.

I suggest you to follow these steps and maybe wait some weeks because I did something similar too while Oreo was hitting Huawei's servers, but I received it only a month later, when the IMEI finally matched my firmware (the IMEI has to be approved in order to receive updates, suggest to "check firmware availability" on Firmware Finder).

"Hey,

I'm not so experienced in Huawei modding, but I managed to debrand my device from C55 to C432, so maybe it's worth a shot.

•

Anyways, try this:

- Download Firmware Finder from Play Store

- open it and click on WAS-LX1C432

- search for builds like B210 (must be an even number and not an Oreo B361, otherwise you can brick your device) choose a FullOTA

- click on update via proxy/DNS, follow the steps on screen

•

The important thing here is to know if the phone grants you into updating with that build, then failing in erecovery (detecting an error, no brick) so that you can reboot with not updated firmware and do a standard System Update from the settings, that update will contain the same build that you've got installed, but it will be used to basically overwrite everything without losing any data, even thought I suggest you to do a backup.

•

Before doing any of the steps I gave you, could you please describe me what you did, what method did you follow?

•

In this post, I am giving steps that worked for me when I had a corrupted firmware, but your problem may be different from this.

Check also the HWOTA method (to solve the same problem but with the warranty void, I suggest to use it only if the above method doesn't work), search "HWOTA P10 lite" on Google for more info.

•

Hope this helps

Same problem with 3T and latest Oxygen OS factory update.

Just one week ago I purchased a refurb 3T in China that had Hydroxogen OS and using sideload flashed the latest Oxygen OS without any problem. Today I am doing the exact same thing with a different 3T and am stuck on the checking for updates screen and there is no way to abort or skip this. I cleared the cache, I deleted all data including Cache, I restarted the flashing process by sideloading the latest ROM OnePlus3TOxygen_28_OTA_064_all_1805171658_ad0d08e196b84e03.zip

Maybe Oneplus update site is to blame? Try again tomorrow?

Edit( I was able to see that the latest oxygen os file on the site was a few days newer and so I downloaded and installed. I still have the endless updating loop, however I can skip the wifi connection now and proceed. However I have to skip the setup wizard.
