[OnePlus 6 Questions & Answers] cmlssr:
Hello everyone!

I've just bought my 1+6 and I really don't want to lose it.

Is there a way for protecting the phone against theft? I mean, against a thief trying to flash the ROM.

I was thinking in installing Cerberus but it won't survive as a system app.

Is there some tutorial for making Cerberus beneath ROM ? Is there a way for preventing and blocking flash?

I know for example that Xiaomi Redmi 4 Pro had the bootloader locked and the only way for flashing was by login in xiaomi site and unlock the bootloader.

What can we do for protecting OnePlus 6 ?

Thank you all!
[OnePlus 6 Questions & Answers] mikex8593:
It is encrypted to begin with and you cannot access any data without the password/pin/pattern, if you have either set. If you unlock bootloader, it will erase everything in the phone, including internal storage.
[OnePlus 6 Questions & Answers] cmlssr:
Recovery mode

I protected my phone with FTP (my phone was already assigned to my gmail account and encrypted) so I tried to test it what would happen if anyone steals me.

I entered the recovery mode and hit recover and then Forget Password and only by doing that I did a hard reset on my phone! How can I prevent this from happening ? It’s a big flaw that I can do this without password. I know that after this I must enter with the previous gmail account.. But still.. I’m sure there is a workaround.

just leave data and GPS on - you can always locate your phone, and wipe it remotely if needed.
[OnePlus 6 Questions & Answers] elrosid:
The thing is, you can swipe down for notification bar and turn on airplane mode directly from lockscreen. GPS and location will not work afterward :silly:
[OnePlus 6 Questions & Answers] Paz9:
silly google

should prevent people from turning ap mode on and disabling any settings set before screen lock - similar to how google pay needs you to unlock screen to use it, same thing should be set for the settings in the status bar,
[OnePlus 6 Questions & Answers] croques:
Thanks for that heads up...

I've just removed mine with the editor so it doesn't show. That makes my access to airplane mode a couple of more steps but probably worth it.
[OnePlus 6 Questions & Answers] Hank87:
I'm interested too in how to protect against theft, I just got mine stolen.

About the status bar, even if he cannot put airplane mode, he can still switch off the phone and take out the Sim card.

If you don't unlock the bootloader they cannot use the phone but it doesn't mean that you'll get it back.

If you install cerberus as a system app, you have to unlock the bootloader, isn't it possible to relock the bootloader after install cerberus and keep it as system app?

Hello, so i had my OnePlus one for a while and just recently i dropped it lucky the screen didn't crack and opens up just fine but the touch stopped working is there a fix for this? And how do i go about it.. I'm currently in Egypt so there isn't really any replacements and anyone who knows much about this device to be able to repair it at a decent price. I would like to fix it on my own, and i honestly hope its just a wire unplugged or something..

Thanks.

[ONE Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Crossvxm:
If you're screen stopped working after dropping it, it is most likely damaged. Dropping it will not cause any rom to malfunction and stop touch from working. It may be a loose connection, or if you got the device used from somewhere, the screen may have once been replaced and the replacement may not be as good as the original (which by no means was perfect either).

[LG V20 Questions & Answers] Oughtsix:
I just received my new to me VS995. It came with firmware VS9951CA. Is this firmware down-gradable to a rootable version? If so could someone point me in the right direction to find the correct KDZ file for a Verizon USA phone? The only KDZ's I can find are for other countries and are on the LG website. I have found and read through the LGUP instructions.

Found the Verizon KDZ files.

P.S. I bought this V20 because I thought I bricked my Note 4 and I want a phone with a replaceable battery. After ordering this V20 I was finally able to find a ROM that my Note 4 would boot under... Lineage. Having run my Note 4 under Lineage for a week I kind of like it better than the bloated V20 stock ROM. Unfortunately since they take different sized CIM's I can't just switch back and forth between the phones to see if I can handle bloatware after a week of slim and slick! ...I think my Note 4 is about an ounce lighter after flashing Lineage.
[Fire HD 8 and HD 10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] autobot200:
I was wondering where apps and games that i move to my SD card are being stored, As you can see from this screen shots (cant post images yet being new to this forum) of my Fire HD 8. I move some app/games to my 256gb sd card but i look in SD storage it doesnt show nearly as much taken up as it should be from what is said that moved to it from apps. I should have over 10gbs of spaced used on my sd card from apps moved to it but only 860mb shows up as being used. What seems to be going on, even the apps show as On SD card. Here a a few screen shots of what i mean. I thought maybe my sd card is damaged or faulty, but i hooked up my Fire HD to my pc and moved over about 3 gigs worth of videos and photos to it and all seems to play and work on my fire hd, even shows that new spaced being taken up by the video and photos used to test it. Any info would be great, thanks for your time.

Hi. Have this problem. Can't install update, having infinity installing. How can I resolve this? Magisk installed. FlashFire didn't help.
[Xiaomi Mi A1 Guides, News, & Discussion] denisval:
With rumours of Treble support coming along with 8.1 that have been debunked by the actual updates, I couldn't help but wonder how plausible it even is that we'll be getting Treble-support on our devices? I know that the Pixel got it and some other devices that came with Nougat got it as well but I can appreciate the complexity of the situation. That being said, I wanted to start a discussion, trying to gain some knowledge by people who have a deeper understanding of how Treble works and how plausible this actually happening for us.

Also, if we were to stay on the a/b partition system without Treble support, how plausible would it be that Xiaomi keeps its promise to deliver Android P for the Mi A1? I get the feeling that it'll be more or less obligated to be able to upgrade.

This is not an attempt to complain about update frequency, I'm very content with the monthly updates and if updates stop I'm pretty sure custom ROMs will provide us with extended support. I'm just trying to get some more insight and I know that there are a lot of people on this forum who have a lot of knowledge to share about stuff like this.
[Xiaomi Mi A1 Guides, News, & Discussion] billis2020:
The thing is that xiaomi will never care about this phone and i bet that mi a2 will have the same end. No Support. I think that xiaomi was not really ready to make an android one phone.
[Xiaomi Mi A1 Guides, News, & Discussion] denisval:
I don't really agree with that. We've gotten updates every month, we were one of the first to get Oreo, one of the first to get 8.1. If you look at the Android adoptions rates and the Android One project guidelines, objectively speaking, we really have nothing to complain about.

That aside, i wasn't looking for subjective comments on why Xiaomi "isn't doing a good job" but more for comments that can give me more knowledge on the questions I was asking.
[Xiaomi Mi A1 Guides, News, & Discussion] berezker:
How can people say xiaomi doesn't care about this phone? We've been getting updates consistently every 3rd week of every month and among the 3% of all phones in the world to actually have Oreo 8.1. Think about that for a moment....

Look at all the other OEMs, LG barely just updated it's almost 2 year old LG V20 to Oreo 8.0, not even 8 1 and it'll get stuck on oreo 8.0. They haven't given the V10 a single uodate for almost more than a year and y'all still complain about the Mi A1?

Also keep in mind that all OEMs will have bugs in initial releases of updates that eventually, are fixed in a timely manner.

Y'all seriously need to chill. If you want daily updates, go develop your own rom and stop complaining.

I don't think they will add treble support for this device. But who knows!
[Xiaomi Mi A1 Guides, News, & Discussion] alanzhoffmann:
Well I thought it was impossible because messing with the partition table could lead to bricked devices, but seeing the treble port and even Android P is kinda giving me hope we'll get it in some update (Android P perhaps, after it's release this or next month).
[Xiaomi Mi A1 Guides, News, & Discussion] PaulDnoOb:
here's my opinion, Xiaomi is unlikely to give A1 a treble support, but constant update will be given to the phone, and as far as I can tell Xiaomi is trying their best to give the user a bug-free experience, I mean it's their first time giving a REAL stock android experience, heck A1 made them more popular... I think?
[Xiaomi Mi A1 Guides, News, & Discussion] denisval:
I have no doubts about the constant updates. They have been very consistent and monthly so they are doing a very good job at that.

I don't know if someone can give me a more technical explaination of how OTA Treble support would work and what the risks are, that would be nice. Also does anyone know what the requirements are when it comes to Android P? Will Treble be required to be able to upgrade?

I find a lot of info pointing out the dangers of moving from a/b to Treble but I can't seem to find any good ELI5 info that explains why :D
[Xiaomi Mi A1 Guides, News, & Discussion] denisval:
I couldn't agree more, I open this thread trying to educate myself on Treble and Android P upgrading process and the very first comment is about how Xioami isn't doing a good job with the Mi A1 :rolleyes:
[Xiaomi Mi A1 Guides, News, & Discussion] tanapak1:
Mi A1 is an Android One device which should get an priority to having updates to the latest version asap as Google stated, so comparing Mi A1 with other device that out of the Android One Program is nonsense.

From the very first release of the device Mi A1 get poorly support from Xiaomi, which includes very late deploying source code that almost make the device developing community dies.

Actually the monthly update is just 'OK', everyone knows that we received new bugs on every update even with they have beta program to testing before deploy the stable release.
[Xiaomi Mi A1 Guides, News, & Discussion] denisval:
Thanks for your contribution, now all my questions are answered. Thanks!

Aside from the cynical remark to yet another pointless comment that's completely besides the questions I was asking I want to add that you people shouldn't hijack every thread that has the keyword "update" in it to start whining. I actually want to gather some knowledge and so far half of the comments are completely pointless. Here are some facts for you guys, please mess up someone else's thread, thanks.

Android adoption rates

Android One update guidelines
[Xiaomi Mi A1 Guides, News, & Discussion] solis_f:
Let me try to be helpful here:

What do you mean by plausible? Plausible is a word for liberal arts, philosophy, literature and other abstract studies or fields. In development, engineering fields no such word is being used. So let us first replace that word, with another one that makes sense.

Is it possible? Yes, everything is.

Is it doable? Yes, it is.

Will Xiaomi ever do it? I can't say for sure since I'm not in anyway affiliated with the development team of Mi A1 updates, but my bet would be on "No".

Now let me explain my reasoning behind this.

To recreate the partition table required for project treble to work (separate system and vendor partitions basically) you need to format your phone. They can't just send an OTA that wipes people's phones. Xiaomi releases an update where the notification led does not blink and people lose their minds. Just imagine what would happen if they put a disclaimer on the OTA, that tells people to backup because the OTA update will wipe their phones for treble support re-partitioning. The majority of people wouldn't even read it and then flood the forums to cry about it (you are experiencing it in this very thread). People expect Google Pixel-like experience (even pixel has hardware and software issues every month) from a 150$ smartphone. You can't afford to do things like that as a company, when you know that your audience is going to publicly execute you, even when they are at fault. It is just not worth it.

There is a make-shift way to enable treble support without re-partitioning and without wiping the phone, but no separate vendor partition is created (Asus has done is on zenfone 3 and google has done it for pixel and pixel xl). However, this procedure is again somewhat risky and could cause soft to semi-hard bricks and alleviates almost all the benefits of project treble due to not having that separate partition. So again, not worth it.

If I was Xiaomi, knowing my customers, I wouldn't have done it either as a marketing strategy. Give people stable updates, less stuff to worry and complain about and also avoid any risky situations that could put the company's name on the front-pages of bad news.

I hope I helped :)
[Xiaomi Mi A1 Guides, News, & Discussion] denisval:
Thanks, this was actually helpful. I completely agree that procedures like that would flood all Mi A1 forums with people who didn't inform themselves and it would backfire so that makes perfect sense. I didn't knew that the procedure Google did for the Pixel phones did not unlock full Treble capabilities, kind of strange that they decided to take the risk at all for that.
[Xiaomi Mi A1 Guides, News, & Discussion] solis_f:
Well since they are at the forefront of Android development they are required to have the latest and greatest thing as they promised for the Pixel lineup. They were somewhat forced to do it because they promised for it. Imagine Google not keeping true to their written statements to customers.

[Xiaomi Mi A1 Guides, News, & Discussion] berezker:
Let me give you a piece of advice, OP

If you want an actual, on-topic and useful discussion, NEVER do that on either XDA or MIUI (Much worse btw)

The only people who can discuss these topics mindfully are the developers and a few handful of people that don't get triggered the moment they see the word "update"

Good luck to you
[Xiaomi Mi A1 Guides, News, & Discussion] tanapak1:
Why would I have to? We already have strong developing community which is better than manufacturer's support.
[Xiaomi Mi A1 Guides, News, & Discussion] denisval:
I actually deleted my account at the MIUI forum because of the poisonous attitude people have over there. The little useful information people post on there is buried immediately by brainless toddlers who clearly don't know how a forum works.

Maybe I was naive thinking this section of XDA would be better but at least a couple of people in these 17 comments were actually helpful so yeah ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

Look man, if you have nothing relevant to say about what I'm asking here just don't comment. I didn't create this thread to give complainers like you another platform to post your unfounded and subjective views on support for our device. If you want to see what the Android One update guidelines or the Android adoption rates are, scroll up, I've posted the links. Educate yourself. But please, stop with the complaining, my thread is not the place for it. If you want to contribute be my guest, if you don't, leave.
[Xiaomi Mi A1 Guides, News, & Discussion] tanapak1:
cmon man, I was answered the one I quoted to.

Did you tried to fight with everyone who doesn't the same as yours?

For what I thought about the topic, ofc it should be 'No' and also you shoudn't pretend yourself and believe on what you think.

If Xiaomi want to do, they will do, but also think that they just released Mi A2 Lite which should be replaced Mi A1 eventually

It's a marketing, business things.

Last thing is, if you really want to make some topic support, just make some online petition and spread them, and I would sign them one if someone make it.

Like somebody said, making the discussion in here is useless, Xiaomi customer support or something else wouldn't response them.
[Xiaomi Mi A1 Guides, News, & Discussion] acmarques:
Where can we have useful discussions then? Sincerely asking because I used to be very happy with XDA when I had Moto phones but the Mi A1 forums are just awful, except for the devs themselves. Everything thing else is just complaining about updates and asking the same questions all the time. But I still haven't found a good place with a useful community for this phone.
