[Google Pixel 2 XL Questions & Answers] Prattham:
i restarted it and still stuck at G logo with loading bar :(
[Google Pixel 2 XL Questions & Answers] Badger50:
That's not weird. Sometimes it does, sometimes not. What a hard restart with the power button a few times?
[Google Pixel 2 XL Questions & Answers] Prattham:
already tried hard reset .... so freaking out
[Google Pixel 2 XL Questions & Answers] Prattham:
is there a way i can make a backup of my internal now?

i flashed again with script but still stuck at G logo with bar
[Google Pixel 2 XL Questions & Answers] Badger50:
You may have to wipe it my friend. I think the EFS file restore did the damage. You only use that in extreme circumstances. However, try turning the phone off, manually enter bootloader, and run the script again.
[Google Pixel 2 XL Questions & Answers] Prattham:
but the thing is i went from pixel dust to aquari os back with same restore and it worked without any problem

i was manually entering the bootloader

is there no way now?
[Google Pixel 2 XL Questions & Answers] Badger50:
There is with adb shell, but don't know about one fastboot mode.
[Google Pixel 2 XL Questions & Answers] Prattham:
but adb wont work right here?
[Google Pixel 2 XL Questions & Answers] Badger50:
The only other thing I can suggest is to just use the standard flash-all.bat scrip with the -w removed so you don't wipe data.

---------- Post added at 09:44 PM ---------- Previous post was at 09:44 PM ----------

Correct.
[Google Pixel 2 XL Questions & Answers] Prattham:
i have tried that also but still stuck
[Google Pixel 2 XL Questions & Answers] Prattham:
anything that can save me?
[Google Pixel 2 XL Questions & Answers] Badger50:
Ah crap! Ok, the one last thing I can think of is to fastboot into twrp, wipe dalvik/ART cache only, and dirty flash the last functional rom you were on before this all started just to see if you can boot up. If that doesn't work, then likely you'll need to wipe or wait for someone smarter than I that can help you.
[Google Pixel 2 XL Questions & Answers] Prattham:
but twrp cant decrypt
[Google Pixel 2 XL Questions & Answers] Badger50:
So you didn't remove screen lock before you started?? :eek:
[Google Pixel 2 XL Questions & Answers] Prattham:
i did thats what is weird now when i temp boot it doesnt decrypt
[Google Pixel 2 XL Questions & Answers] Prattham:
is there anyway i can push rom file from pc to the root folder of twrp where all guys use to flash kernel zips?
[Google Pixel 2 XL Questions & Answers] Badger50:
In adb yes, but don't know of one in fastboot mode. Unless you can access it from stock recovery. However I'm not that familiar with that aspect unless it's with the side load protocol.
[Google Pixel 2 XL Questions & Answers] Prattham:
how do i boot my device now ? when it asks to format data i say yes?
[Google Pixel 2 XL Questions & Answers] Badger50:
Yep, but that's going to wipe the device of course, which you may have to do anyway unless you wait for additional help from the really smart folks.
[Google Pixel 2 XL Questions & Answers] Prattham:
need to get my device up

i swear i am not flashing any roms on this thing ever again
[Google Pixel 2 XL Questions & Answers] Prattham:
okay so i managed to flash aquari os rom and it flashed and now on the bootanimation

i only wiped cache
[Google Pixel 2 XL Questions & Answers] Badger50:
Ya just gotta be prepared my friend for when things go bad. I always make data backups before I even think about doing anything on this device. Which is why I also don't worry about flashing roms anymore. I've got too much family I have to help out with to be without my device. I'm basically on call 24/7 with an ailing mom and grandkids on the way. ?
[Google Pixel 2 XL Questions & Answers] Prattham:
yup stuck at bootanimation
[Google Pixel 2 XL Questions & Answers] Badger50:
How? You said twrp wouldn't decrypt? Anyway, if it doesn't boot up, go back and flash it again. Remember you've got that A/B switching thing to deal with again.
[Google Pixel 2 XL Questions & Answers] Prattham:
i did adb push and it worked

i tried the hard reset but doesnt work
[Google Pixel 2 XL Questions & Answers] Prattham:
should i wipe data cache again and flash again?
[Google Pixel 2 XL Questions & Answers] Badger50:
Yep. Worth a try anyways.
[Google Pixel 2 XL Questions & Answers] Prattham:
i flashed it again and it didnt switched slots its still on A
[Google Pixel 2 XL Questions & Answers] Badger50:
Then do fastboot --set-active=b and flash again.
[Google Pixel 2 XL Questions & Answers] Prattham:
thanks for your time man

its 3 am here gotta sleep

will fix this badboy in morning lol
[Google Pixel 2 XL Questions & Answers] Prattham:
i selected slot b in twrp and flashed it
[Google Pixel 2 XL Questions & Answers] Badger50:
Cool beans :good:
[Google Pixel 2 XL Questions & Answers] Prattham:
wiped the deivce and it booted up and i updated to Pie as well lol
[Google Pixel 2 XL Questions & Answers] Badger50:
Well, at least it works. Bet you won't do that again! ???
[Google Pixel 2 XL Questions & Answers] Prattham:
I lost everything that was really disturbing?
[Google Pixel 2 XL Questions & Answers] Badger50:
Yeah, it definitely sucks for sure! I've done that more than a few times myself. However, it does teach a good lesson......always back stuff up! :good::cool:
[Google Pixel 2 XL Questions & Answers] Prattham:
Yes

How are you finding pie?

[Google Pixel 2 XL Questions & Answers] Badger50:
Meh....it's ok. I don't like the UI with the pseudo flux theme. Don't like the brightness slider algorithm, nor the new battery stats layout. I'm not using adaptive battery and still getting my usual 8-12 hours of SOT. I've had to turn off battery optimization for a few apps to get them to work right since they're old and outdated but still work. I think the overall system volume is lower, hopefully Matt will get digital dolby working again to boost the volume. The system UI seems a little smoother, however, I'm still using Nova launcher since I don't like gesture navigation, but it's ok. I'm just a grumpy old guy that doesn't like change on certain things :cool:

[Samsung Galaxy S9  Questions & Answers] dkadds2:
Hi Guys,

What is the way to edit/add CSC feature on S9?

Seems like somewhere Samsung introduced new way of doing it and files are encrypted.

Did some reading here:

https://xdaforums.com/galaxy-s9/how-to/guide-omc-manipulation-tips-tricks-t3776633

But there must be a simple way of adding some custom CSC codes?

I'm on stock BRGA version and looking to add Call Recording + maybe some other features too.

Already have Magisk and Xposed if required and TWRP in the back.

Please hint me in what to do. Seems like ROM chiefs have some way and I'm just blind that didn't find it yet.

Thanks!
[Moto G5 Plus Questions & Answers] moore.bryan:
For a few days now--about three or four--my contacts have refused to sync. I did all the "stand on one head and wait for the full moon" "fixes"--e.g., disable auto-updates, clear data, reboot, clear all caches via twrp--without success. I've also tried Beans and OpenGapps, as well as complete wipes and AEX, DU, and Omni. I've scoured the web for "Google Contacts sync issues" and every variation, but nothing helped.

Thus, I am here.

HELP!?
[Moto G5 Plus Questions & Answers] javieracdc:
Try to flash Pixel experience and see if your contacts synced (pixel experience doesn't require gapps, it already includes

Enviado desde mi XT1680 mediante Tapatalk
[Moto G5 Plus Questions & Answers] moore.bryan:
Any chance there's another option other than this "nuclear" one; i.e., I'm not really looking to wipe everything again...

Never mind; I bit the bullet and installed PE... contacts sync fine. I'm really not a fan of PE, though, so I'm gonna try using GTR's gapps and pray.
[Moto G5 Plus Questions & Answers] moore.bryan:
Okay, for any weary traveler who wanders upon this thread, I'll share what I've had to do to get Google Contacts to sync and the steps I took in my journey.

Some basics:

Before flashing any rom I completely wiped--i.e., factory reset, format data, format d-cache/data/system/cache/internal storage--so I could start from scratch.

I used the most recent Beans Gapps (June 2018), Ground Zero Gapps (20180313), and OpenGapps (at the time, 20180810).

I tried every version of OpenGapps; that is, Aroma, Super, Stock, Full, Mini, Micro, Nano, and Pico.

I flashed the latest versions of AEX, AICP, DU, Omni, RR, and Validus.

The only roms which allowed my contacts to sync were RR (with Aroma OpenGapps) and PE, which (of course) needs no gapps flashing.

So...

UPDATE

For the ongoing saga... AEX with Aroma now syncs; however, DU and Omni do not. Through conversations via different tg channels, I believe this may be a Lineage base issue. It appears all directly AOSP-based roms work correctly, but LOS-based do not. I have no idea why that would even matter, but meh.

i tried using heimdall to to flash twrp with the gui and via cli, but fail the same way: they report no error at all! finish the flashing and reboot. when i then try to go into recovery the standard recovery is still there! everything is jsut as stock as it was before.

here is the cli output:

[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] alessio89g:
Hi,

after months (since I bought my phone in December 2017) of useless attempts to fix my issue, I decided to post here.

I've a OnePlus 5T and I already tried to ask on its forum, but I didn't get any answer, so here I am…

Sometimes, my phone boot as expected, and my screen-off battery drain is between 0.3% and 0.9% per hour (I check that with EX Kernel Manager), and the battery life is about of 2 days, 3 if I don't use Spotify (about 2 hours per day).

But when I reboot, almost always my battery drains between 2% and 4% per hour!

Seems crazy, but I can't find the reason.

I've tried with Official Lineage OS, OmniROM, Liquid Remix, AOSiP, MSM Extended, Validus ROM, FrankenROM, CrDroid, Havoc OS and probably someone else I don't remember; I also tried with Flash Kernel, Franco Kernel, blu_spark and Singularity Kernel; tried also with AKT, Helix Engine, Greenify and Naptime. I also tried disabling Doze for Google Play Service and deny running in background for it through Op.app\Privacy Guard.

I tried to disable my apps in blocks, and change any kind of Andoid setting and apps, but nothing, I can't find a solution!

Strangely checking the CPU stats my phone seems to sleep most the time, and I can't find nothing of unusual in BetterBatteryStats or in stock battery stats, but maybe I'm not able to interpret them.

It's frustrating, because anyone else who has my device gets at least 3 days of battery life and about 8 hours of SOT.

Can I post some kind of log or stats that can helps someone that wants help me? You can ask me any question, I could just be happy because of someone's interest.

?

As we know all the snapdragon SoC got the ported gsi image of DP5 why are we lagging so much behind . Now the source code of Aosp is out .i hope our team have started the work on honor 7x port . Very much exicted .
[Honor 7X  Questions & Answers] nickzeptepi:
Next year hopefully
[Honor 7X  Questions & Answers] nickzeptepi:
The problem is 9 needs a 8.1 vendor partition, honor 7x emui is a 8.0 vendor partition and not directly compatible.

Might have to wait for a official update to before a port can be done.

It's not about the chipset it's about the vendor
[Honor 7X  Questions & Answers] mimminou:
so if i get this right official stock roms now (thanks to Treble) are going to be built just like custom roms ... based off an already existing firmware and just updating the partitions that needs to be updated instead of rewriting the whole rom and almost all partitions from scratch ... well that makes building a stock om easier ... faster and lighter in size not to talk about custom roms .... but will probably also kill rom ports
[Honor 7X  Questions & Answers] nickzeptepi:
Something like that, Google wants end users to get latest updates & security patches without the need for all the various vendors to tweak it for their custom layer.

Things like vendor camera & sound apps will get ported - Sony sound & Huawei camera for example.

Custom ROMs might become more mainstream, easier to install even official options given by vendors.

Right now we're in the transition phase, so still some snags along the way.

[Vivo Nex Themes, Apps, and Mods] Santosh.gadaley:
Hello,

Is there anyway to extract FM Radio app from V9 and install on VIVO NEX S ?.
[Vivo Nex Themes, Apps, and Mods] BlackPanther_:
There is no FM Radio hardware on Vivo nex, so that app will be useless on Vivo NEX.
[Vivo Nex Themes, Apps, and Mods] Santosh.gadaley:
There may be hardware available but disabled to force use online music.

This phone featured with SD845 similar to Asus Zenfone 5z.

When Asus can give FM featured enabled with same processor why can't VIVO.

I'm sure there will be hardware available but disabled.

I tried installing some FM apk's on store but didn't work, Some doesn't installed and some crashed when try to open.

I even tried to check with "nextradio" to get force unlocked the FM receiver hardware, But it is not available in My region (INDIA).

Hope VIVO will unlock and include the Native FM Radio app on it's next update.

IF anyone know's how to unlock the hidden features, Please let all us know to enjoy this phone to it's core.

Thanks

Santosh Gadaley
[Vivo Nex Themes, Apps, and Mods] BlackPanther_:
Not only SD845 needed to receive FM. Antenna filter and RF hardware part also needed. Main PCB for nex is completely new design and if there is no nex version with FM, no need to add additional hardware to pcb, that will be not used. This rises the price of manufacturing.

Hey all. I just got my new Mate SE (BND-L34). Looks great. Smooth! I'm quite impressed with Emui look. I've been on Samsung Note4 so long. So far I think I'm gonna be happy with my purchase.

So first, should I even update? Second, before I update is there anything i should do? Should I make a Nandroid of Nougat? Can I even make a Nandroid without unlocking bootloader? Cause I was thinking of staying stock for awhile for my warranty.

HI....

for a while I had flashed the German Rom WM 6 to my wizard.

It works and Im happy with it .

But now after a complete power up it starts after a short loading (windows) directly with the password inquiry on the screen. That normaly is displayed after the screen callibration.

And I can´t type in the password and when the wizard says it is wrong.

So I tryed to flash a new image, no chance !!!

The ruu says That is not the right version or error 300 no conection when I start with the boot screen after power up and camera button.

The IPL is 2.21.0001 and

the SPL is 2.G4.4PDA

Maybe there is some help outside here :(:confused::eek:

First you identify your wizard

you have a G4 wizard and I believe that u r trying to flash with a G3 rom thats one error i can see.

second most important thing is try to hard reset your device first to come back on the normal situation and then again go through with step by step for CID unlock. which you need to flash your rom then go through with this link which you can find on Wiki also.

http://wiki.xda-developers.com/index.php?pagename=Wizard Windows Mobile 6 for newbies

then try once again
