[Samsung Galaxy Note 9 (Exynos) ROMs, Kernels, Reco] JazonX:
Device is bootlooping now at the splashscreen, Can't access any modes, 3 Button combinations (Recovery nor Download).

Any Ideas mate ?

EDIT:1 - After a series of button combinations, Charger plug/unplugs - Managed to push it into download mode and flashed the stock rom again.

The TWRP TAR doesn't work, and if you have any other suggestions, let me know.

[Huawei P20 Guides, News, & Discussion] MWiddowson:
I've only recently bought the Huawei P20 and so far, I'm pleased to say it's been a working a treat... Apart from one small thing.

About 3 days after the phone was delivered, the screen protector that comes with the phone seemed to have picked up scratches really quickly...

I took off the screen protector because I planned to order one really soon, however, I'm disappointed to say that the main screen, which is rated to be scratch resistant, picked up scratches really easily... And now it looks like someone has rubbed sand paper over a small part of the lower half and there are some quite deep and noticeable scratches in the middle...

I've read that there is a Gold VIP service for the Huawei P9, P10 and some other old phones... Not the P20 unfortunately.

There is a Diamond VIP service, but I'm ashamed that Huawei have only released that in South Africa and not the UK. The service offered a free screen replacement within the first three months of purchase and I would liked to have seen Huawei offer this service in the UK.

I'm really ashamed that the phone has picked up quite severe scratches on the screen this easily.

Has anyone else had this occur? Please reply.

In uk huawei gave you headphones worth 400eur.

No gorilla glass is scratch resistant to sand. You propably had some sand in you pocket or table.

[Galaxy Note 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] assassin10000:
If your phone is rooted there may be a program that disables the update applications (com.samsung.sdm and com.samsung.sdmviewer if I remember correctly). What applications (other than stock) are on the phone, such as titanium backup, app quarantine, etc.

Now if someone rooted the phone to make it work with your phone network or other software you use this update may disable the phone and/or software requiring root.

[Galaxy Note 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] assassin10000:
Was it not already on the phone? This app automatically checks for OTA updates and downloads them.

You can open settings, scroll all the way down to the 'system' section, click on 'system updates' and then select 'check for updates'. Just make sure you have mobile data connection of some kind. (Cell or Wifi).

SDM should be installed on the phone unless someone specifically removed it. Of course be careful what you download and install. Lots of malicious software out there... If you had the ability to see the 'system update' option in settings, you already had the com.samsung.sdm package and did not need to install anything.

Was this phone sold by your carrier/provider originally or is it one you bought online and was made to work with your carrier/provider?

It's possible that the is no recovery image in the recovery partition to boot hence it is taking back to the bootloader.

[Moto Z2 Force  Questions & Answers] luiguy:
that's right, and I'm in the stock ROM, the bootloader has never been unlocked
[Moto Z2 Force  Questions & Answers] 41rw4lk:
You keep posting the same question all over the place, but you're not helping anyone to help you. I've asked a couple times to see your flashfile, but it has never been posted. Maybe there is something wrong with it. We really need to try and flash the bootloader, that will tell us what we're up against. If you can flash the bootloader, then you can flash back to stock and get out of this mess, but if you get a permission denied and you're using an official signed, then that's another problem.

You said you've tried, but no you haven't. You've tried to use your flashfile and nothing happened, hence the reason I keep asking to see it. Your main goal right now, and I've said this before, is to determine whether you can flash or not. A locked bootloader will only accept official signed firmware from the same carrier with the same revision or higher. So pretty please, don't post the same question anymore but do post your flashfile so we can see if there is anything wrong with it. Better yet, if anyone has a working flashfile for the lastest -05 variant please post it so we can rule it out. In the meantime run this command in fastboot and post the output, but be sure that you don't post your imei info. Not trying to be a ****, but posting the same question all over the forum does nothing to help and will get you banned.

[Moto Z2 Force  Questions & Answers] 41rw4lk:
What were you trying to do when all your trouble initially began? I see that you still have nougat on that slot and the bootloader secure state is engineering, that's not right. Can you still boot into your system? If so make sure adb is enabled. I assume oem unlock is greyed out and unavailable right? What firmware have you tried to flash? Also, if you're able to boot into your system you should disable fingerprint/lockscreen security until you have everything resolved.

In fastboot mode switch slots and run the getvar command again. Post the results and see if the other slot boots. If not switch back. You're currently on _a

fastboot devices
fastboot --set-active=b
fastboot getvar all
fasboot reboot

Post the results of the getvar command. If the phone boots to system on slot _b check out your settings, see if oem unlock is available and make sure adb debugging is on. If it doesn't boot, it should automatically fall back to slot _a but if it doesn't just run the commands above again only set active to a. You don't need to run the getvar command again once you're back to _a. *Note when you run the getvar command the 'current-slot' entry tells you what slot you're on.

You're still on slot a, you need to be on slot b

After you run the command set-active, reboot the bootloader then do a getvar. Also, see if it will boot.

[Moto Z2 Force  Questions & Answers] 41rw4lk:
Either your fastboot file is out of date, or that engineering state is limiting your accessibility. Close any command prompt windows. Download this utilities zip, it has known good adb and fastboot files in it. Extract it to a folder somewhere, open the folder, hold shift and right click a blank area inside the folder, then choose open a command window here. Verify that your device is connected in fastboot 'fastboot devices', then try setting the active slot again and proceed from there.

*Note - Make sure you're using a 2.0 usb port off the motherboard, not a hub from the front of the pc and such. Most people don't have problems with this, but it has caused problems for some. Not all usb ports are so universal, ports on the mobo tend to have more consistent power supply and transfer rates; less interference as well.

[Moto Z2 Force  Questions & Answers] 41rw4lk:
It has to be your phone that limiting your commands. I ran the same commands right out of the utilities zip and had no troubles. I think since you can't really do anything else, and you can't flash back to stock normally you might need to blank flash to get the gist of things back in order. First though, I would open your flashall file and paste the lines one by one in the command prompt and see if you could manually flash your phone. As it stands now, whenever you try to run the .bat file it just does nothing. Skip the fb_mode set and the getvar and start with the actual flashing. It will either flash or you'll get a permission denied most likely.

If you can't manually flash the oreo firmware, then you'll most likely need to blank flash. Several people have had their phone go wonky after trying to upgrade from nougat. So much for seamless updates.
